Notes:
This is a super rare collector's piece despite condition. Stored upright in a climate-controlled, smoke-free home. If you’re building a deep Alegre or 1960s boogaloo collection, don’t miss this one.

Let me know if you’re looking for other Fania, Tico, Vaya, or obscure salsa LPs—I’m listing more regularly.
