Romantic salsa vocalizer José Cheo Feliciano began pursuing a career in medicine at an other age, dropping out of highschool school at 17 to study the best salsa orchestras in New York. His devoted interest in the city's Latin music scene lED to a stint as a gentleman for one of New York's best-known salsa singers, Tito RodrÃguez. This connection provided the opportunity to tryout as a singer for bandleader Joe Cuba, and Feliciano shortly became the vocalizer for Cuba's sestet. Feliciano recorded 17 albums with them during the '50s and '60s on the Seeco and Tico labels. By 1965 Feliciano was a soloist with many of New York's finest salsa groups and Latin music artists, including Eddie Palmieri.
Later on a short retreat, Feliciano returned in 1972 as a component part of Fania Records' All-Stars ensemble, and also recorded as a solo artist for the label for a 10. Feliciano's vocation experienced some other metempsychosis in 1990, when he was signed to RMM Records. As with his old projects, his records for the judge spot his animal, passionate vocal style.
