Ricky Gonzalez - Mi Rumba Es Candela

Hello, I feel bad I don't have a clip of this song like so many of you do. I've tried googling around for this song using phrases I remember but all that comes up is "Charlie Cruz - Dejala Que Baile", which I'm pretty sure is not it. If I do find out who sings this song, it will be my favorite salsa song to dance to. I discovered salsaforums googling for the song and joined just to make this request. Here are the phrases:
  • "dejale que baile. dejale que goce." (or "dejela" or "dejala")
  • "ray barretto. manos duras."
  • "se que te va' gustar"
  • "sopla" (for a trumpet solo?)
  • "fruko" or "truco" or something similar sounding
Even though the song mentions Ray Barretto I feel like the song isn't that old. I don't know if Ray Barretto actually played on the song or if they were just paying homage. If you guys can help me out I'd be forever in your debt. :P

Hm, that first line sounds very familiar to me, but I don't remember the matching title. :( But the second one reminds me of a song that I heard recently by Pedro Conga: No Me La Pongas Dura
 
well check,
Ray Rodriguez Y Swing Sabroso - Barretto Medley
also,
Ray Barreto - Manos Duras from Salsa Caliente de New York

OK, if the song is not Ray Barretto's Manos Duras as is probably the case (and as others have already suggested) there is a killer track where Ray takes a conga solo and they say Manos duras (Ray's nickname - Hard Hands) from a newer album - Ricky Gonzalez "Oasis". THe song is called Mi RUmba es Candela and is one of the most kicking tracks (IMHO) recorded in the last 10 years.

Glad you found it. That album has some nice tracks on it. Frankie Vazquez and Jimmy Bosch are also killer on that track.
