Soy La Ley by Robert Y Su Banda is a hidden gem of Colombian salsa dura, originally released in 1978 and reissued by Vampi Soul in 2019. Led by the talented Roberto Antonio Urquijo Fonseca of Barranquilla, the band draws from the vibrant costeño traditions of cumbia and salsa, with Urquijo’s charismatic vocals drawing comparisons to legendary sonero Héctor Lavoe.
This album is especially notable for featuring the original version of Joe Arroyo’s iconic hit “Rebelión,” here titled “El Mulato,” showcasing a distinctive cumbia-infused arrangement. With additional tracks penned by Arroyo and fiery covers spanning salsa, guaguancó, and folk influences, Soy La Ley stands as an essential slice of Colombian musical history for Latin music devotees.
