Production

Location

Although the CD booklet states that this performance took place in "Vega Baja, San Juan", this is a production error. It should have been simply written "Vega Baja" for Vega Baja and San Juan are two distinctive municipalities of Puerto Rico. There are four towns between Vega Baja and San Juan. Actually, the municipality of San Juan is the capital of Puerto Rico. Moreover, the festival actually took place in the municipality of Manatí which is very close to the borderline with Vega Baja. Back in those days, everybody mistakenly knew the festival area as being inside Vega Baja instead of Manatí. Approximately a decade later, this mistake was corrected.
