Tracks include Celebración, Papurrico, Conga del pueblo, Soncito and Son de medio peso. BroadwayWorld noted the album earned wider attention, including a New York Times pick.

Ferrer, a composer, guitarist, tres player and poet, began his professional career in 1973 and wrote songs such as Mariposa and Inspiración. Lena Ferrer, his longtime collaborator, adds vocals, percussion and marímbula to the father-daughter duo that has performed in Cuba, the United States and Europe.
