Roberto RoenaRoberto Roena was one the original members of El Gran Combo of Puerto Rico, who derived from the famous Puerto Rican percussionists Rafael Cortijo. Roena, aside from being a percussionist, was a dancer and baseball player. He went on to form one of the best Latin salsa bands in Puerto Rico in the early 1970s (Roberto Roena y su Apollo sound). He was also a long time member of the Fania All stars, which enjoy world wide success. Roena recorded such hits, as Y Tu Loco Loco, Traicion, Que Se Sepa and Herencia Rumbero. Mr. Roena took a giant step in the fusion of Salsa in the 70's By occasionally joining forces with African superstart Manu Dibango of "Soul Makossa" fame.
