Biography

Born in Ciales, Puerto Rico on Aprils 23, 1937, singer, musician, and songwriter Adalberto Santiago is considered one of salsa musicâs greatest vocalists. Influenced by iconic Cuban singers Beny MorÃ© and Miguelito CunÃ, he began his professional career playing bass or guitar with various trios led by ChuÃto VÃ©lez, Willie Rosario, and Willie Rodriguez. He rose to fame when he joined Ray Barrettoâs band in 1966, recording seven albums over the next six years. Adalberto Santiago sang on many of Barretoâs hits including âQuitate La Mascaraâ and âAla Con Almaâ. Adalberto Santiago was a founding member of The Fania All-Stars, who have released over 15 albums since 1968. In 1973, he formed Tipica 73, a band featuring four former members of Ray Barrettoâs group. He then left Tipica 73, taking a few members of that band with him, and formed Los Kimbos. Even with his own groups, he has contributed vocals for albums by Willie Rosario, Impacto Crea, Louie Ramirez, Celia Cruz & Tito Puente, Linda Ronstadt, Jazz Hamilton, and many others. Adalberto Santiago has also found time to record his own solo albums including Adalberto (1977), Calidad (1982) Cosas del Alma (1984), and Sex Symbol (1989), which featured the hit âLa Noche MÃ¡s Lindaâ. With a very large catalog of recordings spanning six decades, Adalberto Santiagoâs iconic status in salsa music is secure.
