Orlando (Florida), USA - Salsa Band Orquesta Yarey will release its new album titled La Perfecta Combinación in early November, under the independent label Great Dane Records.

La Perfecta Combinación translated as “The Perfect Combination” comes as Yarey singer Chamy Solano and band leader Sal Pérez join forces with trumpet virtuoso, and singer Joe King. With hot salsa arrangements and extraordinary lyrics, the new album is already getting high reviews from disk jockeys and radio stations in Orlando, New York, and Miami.

Chamy Solano and Sal Perez got together around 10 years ago when they released the album Pónme a Gozar which received great reviews and went to the top of charts during the 90’s.

Joe King, on the other hand, has been well established in the salsa industry as music director for the acclaimed salsa legend Hector Lavoe and later for Tito Nieves. King has also worked with prestigious artists such as Tito Puente, Ray Barreto, Celia Cruz, Marc Anthony, and Michael Stewart. Joe King also brought the salsa version of “Corazon Partio” written by Alejandro Sans.

With arrangements made by Willie Ruiz, Ramon Sánchez, P. Núñez, Joe King, and José Febles and songs written by José Feliciano, Monchy de Seda, Tato Vázquez, Ramón Rodriguez, Mike Amadeu and Sal Pérez, the album proves to be an explosion of old style, danceable, and extremely hot Salsa.

In the song “Don Pedrito” they added a little flavor of reggaetón with performances from K-Libre and Dj TonyStar (El Tonka).

The album consist of 9 songs including the song “Defensores de la Paz” dedicated to the US and Latin soldiers fighting the war overseas and a bonus track of their previous hit song “Pónme a Gozar”.
