Amada Mía - Cheo Feliciano

While celebrated as one of salsa's fiercest soneros, Cheo Feliciano possessed a profound gift for the bolero. On this jewel composed by Tite Curet Alonso and arranged by Bobby Valentín, Feliciano delivers a masterclass in Puerto Rican vocal warmth. His rich baritone wraps around acoustic guitar and subtle percussion, demonstrating how a seasoned dancefloor improviser can strip away bravado to convey tender vulnerability.
