Ep. 80 Pt. 2 Cheo Feliciano: Comeback album and the Fania years
Whether it was salsa or boleros, his time with Joe Cuba, the Fania All Stars or his later collaborations, one thing that never changed was his sentimiento. And he wasn’t just a romantic bolerista, his skill at interpreting in soneo, as an improvising sonero was remarkable. No matter what he sang, he interpreted it with feeling and sincerity. Thank you for tuning in to the first part in a three part podcast series about Cheo Feliciano.
After his recovery from addiction, Cheo Feliciano would make his triumphant return to the scene, his comeback album simply titled 'CHEO'. It featured 9 compositions of the renowned Puerto Rican composer, Tite Curet Alonso. The next year he would record an album of boleros with Jorge Calandrelli and his orchestra in Argentina. His trajectory would continue as he recorded many more memorable hits for Fania.
Feliciano would also travel and perform with the Fania All Stars and record memorable hits with them, such as his rerecording of his composition, 'El Raton'.
