Rhythm and party flavor with the… Sexteto Caracas, launched in 1969 by a small Venezuelan label (Discos Diana), appeared when salsa was already a consolidated popular phenomenon in the country. The era of the rage of the tasty crossover of genres with guaguancó and boogalú and even soul, of the “superdiscotecas with cinematic sound and psycho-delirious dance floor”, as was announced in the promotion of a show at El Palacio del Baile when Caracas was experiencing an impressive cultural explosion. The Caracas of the booming music industry and Sears department stores.

In this context, the only album by Sexteto Caracas was released, a group of young but seasoned musicians in dozens and dozens of shows, with a luxury musical director (Abiezer M. D`Aubeterre, better known as “Ajoporro”, also in charge of the piano and guitar) and the voice of Alfredo Antonio, who had previously ventured into pop music as the singer of the group Chicles.

The Caracas Sextet was born in the mid-60s at the initiative of the timbalero Jesús “Chui” Osuna, who conditioned his own house for the group`s rehearsals, and it established itself as it added concerts in that Caracas of great musical revelry until it reached its unique album, a collector`s item that El Palmas Music proudly recovers, faithful to its objective of cultural archeology and revaluation of artists who deserve a privileged place in history
