Recorded at Altamar Music, San Juan, Puerto Rico and Unique Studios, New York, New York. CONTRA LA CORRIENTE won the 1999 Grammy for Best Tropical Latin Performance. Take a huge helping of danceable salsa, mix it with a splash of urban R&B and 70's pop, serve it up with a voice saturated with emotion, and you've got Marc Anthony. His status as a Latin music superstar can only be buoyed by CONTRA LA CORRIENTE, his third Spanish-language salsa album. Anthony covers the dance floor with energetic songs like "Me Voy A Regalar" and "Si Tu Vas," and plunges wholeheartedly into emotional ballads such as "Y Hubo Alguien" with characteristic soulfulness. This album is in some respects an answer to Anthony's old-school critics, who have objected in the past to his modern take on traditional salsa; CONTRA was recorded in Puerto Rico with the well-known arranger Angel "Cucco" Pena, a collaboration whose result is fresh and innovative, yet strongly resonant of the soneros who have been among Anthony's lifelong influences.
