[Edit]

Portrait of Johnny captures Johnny Colon in the midst of his evolution from the Latin soul of his previous records into the smoldering salsa approach of his later efforts. The album also embraces elements of psychedelic funk and even the blues, yielding a dark, edgy atmosphere that contrasts sharply but effectively with the infectious energy of the underlying groove. Most impressive is Colon's trombone work, which expands the stylistic and spiritual reach of his past records to forge a sound that's both serpentine and swaggering.
