Thanks for posting. Lots and lots of good mems. I listen to this on the corners of my bronx streets with my best friend Edwin just chilling - no drugs or junk - right before joining the Marines in 1971. My latin songs and race car mags got me thru 4 years active. Beautiful!. Sgt.V.Valle from evergreen ave.,bronx

[JimmySturk]

I am black and 63 yrs. old and consider myself an old school lover of latin music and dance (The Corso, Palladium, etc.) This was the ultimate latin love song and transended all cultural barriers back in the day. Thank you for preserving such wonderful music.

[magcarril]

@JimmySturk I'm Puerto Rican and 67 & I too danced it all..this is one of MY faVorite love songs, cause it was one of the first times that they sang Latin in English for us bi-linguals Peace via music VIVA MARIA!

[TheFrankiec1228]

The romantic voice of the great Jimmy Sabater - the heart and soul of the Joe Cuba group. This recording, from 1962, is still one of my favorites. Bravo, and thanks for putting this up on YouTube.

[msctube45]

En mi familia todos sentimos la desaparicion de Joe Cuba lider del famoso Sexteto (del cual hacian tambien parte Cheo Feliciano, Jimmy Sabater, Nick Jimenez entre otros) que recordaremos siempre por su estilo musical creativo e inolvidable que nos puso a bailar en los 60s y 70s. Que Dios lo tenga en la gloria. Un Colombiano.

[henrywpope]

I would like to apologize and thank "soneromygz" and "A50501ac" for correcting me that Jimmy Sabater was singing lead and Che Feliciano was singing in the chorus on "To be with you". Even though I was wrong, but I must emphasize on my eternal love for this masterpiece. I am so deeply moved by this phenomenal song. I have and always will turn to this song for emotional healing, the song never lets me down. Regards: Henry W. Pope

[a50501ac]

i don't think this guy knows joe cuba

joe cuba cousin is landy nova thats how they have fine music together

[henrywpope]

Joe Cuba has a voice of pure gold, he is such a romantic singer. When I hear this song I feel that I am in Puerto Rico on a beach dancing with the most beautiful woman in the world (figuratively speaking). I know of no other song in God's green earth rather it be in english or spanish that can compare to this masterpiece. This is the ultimate love song of all times. Regards: Henry W. Pope

[soneromygz]

bro this is not joe cuba singing,bro this jimmy sabater and che feliciano in the chorus,if u like doo wop music,u can heard this song in cbs 10.1 in ny
