About
While solidifying his rep as the reigning boogaloo mastermind of the late ‘60s, Ray Barretto steps into disco territory with 1977’s swanky <i>Can You Feel It</i>. The opening title track commands listeners to surrender to the groove with its supple, funky basslines and sparkly, jazzy guitar strums. “I Think About You” is so intensely smooth—with a sultry, soulful edge—it could’ve been penned by Bobby Caldwell. Yet Barretto stays true to his Latin roots on the closer, “Confrontation,” a zesty banger powered by frenetic Caribbean drumming.
