about

For their latest release, Spanglish Fly went into the studio with Fania legend Harvey Averne, the man behind the boards for classic records by giants like Ray Barretto and Eddie Palmieri. The results? Two tunes grounded firmly in the old school while updating boogaloo for the next generation of fans.

"My Shingaling Boy," with lyrics in which singer Erica Ramos celebrates the . . . abilities . . . of her man, sounds like a NYC Latin band veering south toward the Big Easy, featuring a rhythm and blues beat and rolling piano riffs--before the whole band takes off in a Cuban carnival, fading away until all that's left is the sound of percussionists jamming in the park, long after dark.
