Mark Dimond:
When you first listen to the 1971 Fania release titled Brujeria you are treated to extraordinary musical arrangements and keyboard mastery superbly performed by Mark (Markolino) Dimond, a young man who grew up on Manhattan’s Lower East Side with a single mother and sister. His father, who was from Cuba, left the family when Mark was just a child. So, he learned his trade, on his own, while growing up in a challenging environment. You will also be treated to a fine performance by well-known vocalist Angel Canales, in his first recording. But it’s not until you hear Mark’s outstanding piano solos on “El Barrio” and “Aguardiente” that you can appreciate the talents of this, then, blossoming star.
