Yo mama Joe Bataan is playing on Curtis radio!! Yes, yes you heard that right! THE Joe Bataan, THE legendary musician from NYC, king of Latin Soul...from the streets of El Barrio (Spanish Harlem) in his teenage years, to recording eight essential albums for seminal label Fania Records, to founding his imprint Salsoul and pioneering a new music genre (hip hop) with his smash hit Rap-O Clap-O, to his most recent release "Call My Name" on Vampisoul, Joe Bataan's stunning and everlasting career spans six long decades, and the list of achievements is simply too long to list here. He is without a doubt one of the most important artists of that rich and fruitful melting pot of soul, jazz, and Latin music that emerged in the Big Apple in the second half of the 20th Century and that, to this day (Bataan is still very active at his 80 years of age) continues to inspire, induce body movement and uplift the souls of music lovers from across the globe. So it is with great pride and excitement that we present this beautiful 10-song selection from the "alma" of Joe Bataan directly to yours. So sit back, relax, turn the volume up and enjoy the show. Joe Bataan ladies and gentlemen!!
