I have no idea why the liner notes says authorship of Avisale A Mi Contrario is disputed when it is merely the most famous rivalry tunes written by Tito Rodriguez. The arrangement is quite different from original, but it’s very good in a different way compared to the original and made salsanewyork.com list. Que Se Sepa in this album is a completely different song from Que Se Sepa in Apollo Sound 6.
