Salsoul is the ninth studio album by trailblazing Filipino-African American singer Joe Bataan, featuring his classic single "Mujer Mia." Reissued for the first time since 1973 - on colored vinyl LP - Salsoul was born out of Bataan's love for salsa and soul, which develped during his youth in New York's Spanish Harlem. Such was the impact of Bataan's new sound, that Salsoul served as the catalyst for the creation of a label by the same name. Formed by borthers Joseph, Kenneth and Stanely Cayre, Salsoul Records spearheaded a new generation of charismatic artists that, influenced by soul, funk and Latin dance rhythms, gave the label a signature sound. Re-emerging in samples and remixes, the Salsoul Records catalog is proof of the label's endruing legacy and its crucial role in shaping the sould of a new wave of disco.
