I assume the Spanish Harlem connection and Afro-Cuban influence.

Excellent song and a good history lesson about NYC. I try to keep up with the music coming from there.

You may like to look up Milo Z, a funk band, from there.

Thanks,

Hi Billy ...

I'm glad you liked the song. I'll check out Milo Z tonight. I'm not familiar with him. There's a lot more to the history of Boogaloo's quick demise. I could write a three-page article on it, but I just hit a couple of the high points here. There was a number of songs written and recorded about Boogaloo, but they weren't usually performed in the Boogaloo genre.

Many thanks for the listen and kind words! Best to you ...
