The Fania All-Stars was a music group created in the late 60’s By Johnny Pacheco to showcase Fania records leading Salsa musicians & singers. Fania All-Stars featured Salsa Icons such as Hector Lavoe, Celia Cruz & many others who continue to inspire the music culture after their passing. In 1974 the All-Stars performed in Zaire Africa at the Stadu du Ha stadium along with Stevie Wonder and other great musicians. Salsa’s roots can be traced back to Africa, so it’s beautiful to see the all-stars vibe spiritually with their people in this concert.

Here’s some of my favorite clips

Hector Lavoe - MigenteĀ 

Celia Cruz - Kimbara
