Album Notes Personnel: Celia Cruz (vocals); Johnny Pacheco (flute, guiro, percussion, background vocals); Justo Betancourt (vocals); Charlie Rodriguez (tres); Hector "Bomberito" Zarzuela, Luis "Perico" Ortíz (trumpet); Papo Lucca (piano); Victor Venegas (bass instrument); Johnny Rodriguez (congas); Ralph Marzan (bongos); Ismael Quintana (maracas). Being so used to Celia Super Star, it's hard to believe that in 1974 she was definitely older generation as far as the young idea was concerned. Then came this record, pairing the star of the parents and the star of the kids in a stroke of musical brilliance and marketing genius. The rest is history -- and current affairs -- except that this, the first of the series was also the best. ~ John Storm Roberts, Original Music
Editorial Reviews 4 stars out of 5 -- [A] matchup made in twist-and-shout heaven, and utterly essential. Rolling Stone
