Fania and Salsa
The first Fania albums were distributed to local record stores from the back of Pacheco's car. Slowly, Fania built its fan base throughout New York City. It reinvested profits back into the label and was eventually able to buy other well-known Latin music record labels.
I got this via NPR, and thank goodness I happened to be listening to
it at the time. I really dig it, but never understood why it is called
"Sauce?"
