Rubén Blades y Son del Solar... Live! or also known as Live! is the third live album by Panamanian singer Rubén Blades and the first with the band Son Del Solar released on March 20, 1990.[3] For WEA International Inc. and Elektra Records. The album contains all the featured songs from Blades albums from 1984 (with Buscando América) to 1988 (with Antecedente ), with songs like Decisiones (Live), El Padre Antonio (Live) and also including his hit Pedro Navaja (Live). A song that was not in his stay in Elektra but was in Fania Records on his 1978 album Siembra.

Background

[edit]

After recording his curious English album Nothing But the Truth in 1988 Blades said goodbye to Elektra to go to Sony Music until 2002 with his studio album Mundo.

He also rewrote the song Muévete originally recorded by Los Van Van.
