In 1974, during the heyday of the New York salsa explosion, the Fania All Stars were invited to perform in front of 80,000 people at a stadium in Zaire, Africa. Featuring exquisite performances by Celia Cruz, Héctor Lavoe and the All Stars’ many other virtuoso players and vocalists, the concert was captured on film. Live in Africa captures a particularly soulful moment in the history of Latin music.
