Mario is in The Dragons. Alejandro was in the Nuns and Rank&File and does that solo stuff. Javier was in the Zeros and the True Believers. Coke & Pete were in Santana and Azteca and they did lots of other shit too. Sheila, of course, leads a very glamorous life. So? I think i'll pick Coke cuz i love his name and i had a solo album of his that was really hot. and he was a snappy dresser.

Alejandro - for no particular reason.
Sheila - because she puts water on the snare and knows Arsenio Hall.

eleven years pass...

checking out this two-fer for the first time right now. definitely has that big budget mid-70s fantasy studio sound and plenty of salsa influence. reminded of things like the flora purim or cal tjader albums of the time. very satisfying. sheila was still a teenager when this material was recorded lol.
