Joe Bataan - Lost Sessions: New York 1976

2010 archive release from the legend of Latin Soul containing rare studio recordings from 1976. Bataan's recordings in the late '60s for Fania were the very definition of that genre, while his early '70s recordings for the fledgling Salsoul label are always in demand by DJs and collectors alike. His version of Gil Scott-Heron's 'The Bottle' (called 'La Botella') from the LP Afrofillipino" is a club classic. Later in the decade he returned to Salsoul and had one of the first international Rap hits with 'Rap-o-Clap-o'. BGP.
