	Fania Records - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Fania Records was a New York based record label founded by Johnny Pacheco (a musician) and Jerry Masucci (a lawyer) in 1963.
		In 1968 Pacheco invented a "superband" called Fania All-Stars that brought together the elite of Salsa musicians and singers for joint performances and recording.
		In September 2005, Fania's assets were sold to Emusica and by early 2006, the new owners began to reissue material from Fania's backlog catalog; some of which had never appeared on CD before with enhanced sound and liner notes.

		In the end, Fania's great success was due, in most part, to the signing of new talent, the development of their potential, as well as the ability to recognize the direction the music was taking at the time and having the artists contribute to that vision.
		Once Fania became a profitable and recognizable label with bands like Willie Coln, Larry Harlow, and Ray Barretto soaring up the music charts in New York and bands like Roberto Roena and Bobby Valentn doing the same in Puerto Rico, the Fania All Stars concept was born.
		Fania then became the most recognized Latin record label in the world and a major force in establishing salsa music as a powerful form of music.

		In 1968, when Fania boss Jerry Massucci created a live super-group from his roster, he was determined to push this Fania act as rock/pop stars, catapulting Latin music out of the Spanish ghettos, across the States and ultimately to the rest of the world: and indeed he achieved it.

		It therefore had to make a film that would radically say the contrary: that salsa was, in reality, a fundamental part of that pop culture, that it was susceptible to being enjoyed by the majority publics and that it, absolutely, had nothing to do with minority groups and their always repugnant misery.
		The first project was a coupling of Steve Winwood with the All Stars reduced to a rhythm section (Pacheco, Valent'n, Barretto, Roena, Nicky Marrero and Papo Lucca) for the instantly forgettable Delicate and Jumpy (1976), released on Columbia Records in the USA and Island Records in the UK.

	Fania All-Stars - Que Pasa?: The Best of Fania All-Stars \| The Mix
		Most listeners wouldn't consider this a proper best-of, despite the title, since it only includes material from the band's late-'70s stint with Columbia.
		Fania All-stars' late-'70s stint with the label is usually rated as a time that saw them tone down their more ethnic and improvisational facets for a more pop-crossover reach.
		Generally that's true, but that doesn't mean that this record isn't generally worthwhile, though it might not be their purest brand of salsa.
