Today, I had the pleasure of interviewing all-star conguero/percussionist Little Johnny Rivero a.k.a. Pequeño Johnny who has been part of the Eddie Palmieri Orchestra for the past 20 years. He is also known for his 16 year stint with the iconic Puerto Rican music institution La Sonora Ponceña. We discussed his new recording “Golpe Duro”, his musical influences, his playing style and his history. You can check it out on soundcloud.com under WorldSalsaRadio.com. The Six at 6 pm gave tribute to “El Niño Bonito” of Salsa and Fania All Stars alumni…Ismael Miranda. Here is the playlist:
