Wow, this band was in their 20s with this World Music musical amalgam of Rock, AfroJazz, Salsa, Pop, et cetera. Definitely timeless and decades ahead of the curve before Crossover music became popular.
as the title of the tune says, "it's over". the band came to play,it killed,turn the lights off,go home, and keep your abraxas LP in a safe place..............
At this time Orestes Vilato was the timbale player in the great Ray Barreto's band. Chepito Areas and "Coke" Escovedo was the percussionist at this time.
Pardon my noy 2 bad french butt......... this iz some real KICCK ASS MUZIK....notice how in order 2 make a hit 2 day they truly learn from YESTERDAY..... and we actually played it no offense to techno ha ha ha ha ha buttt we could do it ourselves..OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
carlitos es lo mejor que hay en latinoamerica aunque aveces afamen a otros grupos u otros artistas..solo los que saben lo aceptan como lo mejor que latinoamerica ha dado en el ambito musical
Recuerdo que era el año 72 estaba muy niña y andaba en la laguna de xiloá con mi hermana mayor... y la oyó y me dijo.. andá sarita bailala... y me puse a bailarla... con aquel baila que abrías las piernas y cerrabas, chistoso y cuando acabó levanté la mirada, estaban cientos de personas viéndome impávidas.. cómo movía el cuerpo....jaaaaaaaaaaaa
my dear Ray - surely, you aren't Latin; or know anything about Latin grammar... There's a verb, in latin grammars - acabar/ acabó (Past in Spanish) or acabou (Past in Portuguese), meaning: "it´s over/ it's finnished", and nothing grammatically coherent in "Se A Cabo" - 'Cabo being a word meaning 'Cap' (geographically speaking). It´s true that the song was labeled, in the original album, "Se-A-Cabo". But surelly the albun's producer, as any 'average-American', was an ignorant as y
@curiousone4 Hey curiosone4, the song was written by Jose Arias. One of the album producers was Carlos Santana. Are you saying both of them were ignorant? Or were you just ignorant of the facts? And perhaps you've never heard of the centuries old writing style called "poetic license"? Get out of your glass house before you throw stones dude! Or making your own "gaffe" and pursuing it!
@curiousone4 hey curio', the break down [se-a -cabo] simply relates, to the way it is pronounced, as it is sung, for the sake of musical poetic license. similar to the proco haram song,"conquistador",where the title lyric is mispronounced for the sake of musical poetic license. it's music,not grammar,folks...in spanish, it would be con-'key'-stador, not con-'quis'-tador[english phonetics] . but the spanish pronounciation, would not flow,sing it in your head, and see for yourself.
@RayPaganJr it is a very common error amongst 2nd generation Hispanics born in the USA or people that came too young to this great place. There are too many of these gramatical errors everywhere in print and spoken Spanish,..it is a shame!!
@shaikhymx Agreed. My mom would never correct me if she thought the word I said in Spanish was "cute". Of course I wouldn't know if it was right, until I used the particular word in Puerto Rico only to have my cousins laugh at me, which they were assholes for doing so. I did let my parents know how wrong they were for them not teaching us proper Spanish, and for them not learning proper English.

The title is correct, albeit wrong. Se A Cabo. That is how it is titled in the album. Not "Se Acabo."
