The show began with Tony Mowod's introduction of the King...
The band had some really great guys there with José Madera on congas, Johnny Rodriguez on bongos, Mitch Frohman on sax (right), Peter Miranda (baritone sax behind Johnny). Lewis Kahn and Reynaldo Jorge (all star trombonists).
Frankie Morales, Tito Puente and Bernard Minoso.
The crowd really got into it. The lady on the left is my good friend Elisabet Rodriguez. In addition to being a good dancer (as shown), she is a successful Latino business woman in Pennsylvania. ¡Guapea Eli!
