More Latin music for you. This is Fruko Y Sus Tesos, one of the most important salsa bands from Colombia, playing “El Ausente” (“The Absentee”) with the late great Álvaro José “Joe” Arroyo on lead vocals. Taken from a mid to late 80s reissue of the 1973 LP “Ayunando” (“Fasting”).

(BTW, after all these years I have no idea of what instrument plays the solo in the final section of the song)
