Puerto Rican salsa star Tito Rojas continues his winning streak of solo albums with PERSEVERANCIA. A lively outing carried by the charming vocals of Rojas, this set is highly rhythmic and immediately infectious. Songs such as "Me Enamoro Mas de Ti" and "Me Tiene Enamorao" shuffle giddily along, lifted by excellent horn arrangements, while "Como a Ti Te Gusta" features a slightly melancholy undercurrent. Overall, the proceedings are undeniably upbeat, and any listener will have a hard time resisting the urge to get up and dance to Rojas and his accomplished band of musicians.
