by Al Santiago
In the middle sixties, I was recording supervisor for Pete Bonet and Louie’s Beautiful People LP on Fania. Pacheco supervised the first session and gave in to Louie that I finish the LP and supervise the mixing. Pacheco was VP of the label and he could and did make that decision. Louie busted Johnny’s chops so much about this that Johnny finally said Well let him do it, I’m outta here. It was a big band session that included the Latin-Jazz instrumental Joe Gaines Express. Louie’s arrangements were brilliant and Pete was in relatively top form. In the late sixties Louie with Pete Bonet formed a steady big band working as house band at the Corso. Eddie Martinez and Ray Maldonado were part of that band. Tito Puente was very pleased to have some competition again. Tito Rodriguez had moved to Puerto Rico.
