Gonzo Gonzales – Turn Your Lights Down Low
Originally recorded by Bob Marley, Gonzo Gonzales brings this classic to life as a Salsa reinterpretation on his new 45RPM release. Just like his rendition of Ain’t No Sunshine—included in his debut album Salsa Para Todo El Mundo alongside Peruvian pianist Alfredo Linares—Turn Your Lights Down Low is poised to become another hit. The track is enriched by the soulful vocals of Danny Gomez and the masterful arrangement by brilliant pianist Pedro Bermúdez.
The song speaks of the deep connection between two souls, expressing pure and sincere love after patiently waiting for the right moment.
Colombian trumpeter Javier Aponza delivers a captivating solo, adding an extra layer of magic to the track. Kudos to Gonzo for his visionary decision to embrace the vinyl format at a time when it was thought to be a thing of the past. This is truly a remarkable production!
A special thanks to DJ Chino from Solar Latin Club for sending me this excellent song.
