Before salsa conquered the world, another sound was moving through the streets of New York.
Latin Soul Train is an intimate listening experience that explores the musical crossroads of Spanish Harlem, the South Bronx and Brooklyn during the late 1960s and early 1970s. This was a generation of young Latino musicians who grew up between worlds—listening to Tito Puente and Motown, Ray Barretto and James Brown—and creating something entirely new.
Presented as a three-part journey:
The Hustle explores how New York’s Latino communities searched for identity as soul, funk and disco came together.
The Barrio uncovers the neighbourhoods, voices and rhythms that gave birth to this remarkable new sound.
The Revolution follows its journey beyond New York, revealing how Latin soul and boogaloo influenced underground music movements across Latin America and helped shape what would later become salsa.
A story of New York before salsa became a movement. A soundtrack born between the barrio and the soul train.
Limited to five guests to create an intimate listening experience.
Session Times
• Thursday – 6:30 pm
• Saturday – 4:30 pm & 6:30 pm
Duration: 75 minutes
