Description
Studio 360’s American Icon series has explored dozens of influential works of art and entertainment that have shaped who we are as Americans.

This time: the album “Siembra” by Willie Colón and Ruben Blades, which many salsa fanatics thought was doomed when it came out on Fania Records in 1978.
