Thank you, Pete for having this YT channel I'm 62 y/o for me and my friends growing up in NYC, Izzy is the pivotal influencer in the NYC area with LATIN NY and the TV with local kids dancing to live bands and records like other TV shows like Soul Train etc... And Thanks to Larry Harlow for putting Salsa in the Grammys along with Eddie Palmieri
What always stood out for me re: Latin N.Y. Magazine was the clever and humorous manner the publication would convey social messages of responsibility. There was one graphic rendering by Izzy of a bearded male Latinx who had sunglasses, gold chains, short pants, chancletas, and a T-Shirt with a P.R. flag on it, while holding onto a Schaefer beer in his right hand. While his left hand held on to a picket sign of protest that read "Down With Stereotypes." I thought that was a brilliant and comedic method of getting the reader to pay mind to it, while also provoking thought and forcing one to literally consider the reality of what the message conveys. That no matter what you look or dress like, tolerance is always the path to eliminates fear and fuel respect if that which one does not understand. A message that applies today as much, if not moreso, as it did in the 1970s and early '80s.
I was introduced to Latin as it was called before it was Salsa in my teens. I remember the posters Izzy on lamp posts throughout the city. I went to a lot latin dances in the late sixties and early seventies. My favorite was Monday night at the Red Garter. I had most of Willie(El Malo) Colon's and Ray (Mr.Hard Hands) Barretto.Also the Fania Allstars Live at the Red Garter (Vol.1 and 2)and Live at the Cheetah. I also remember when Latin NY came out in the early seventies. I read somewhere it was either Izzy or one of the Lebron Brothers that coined the term Salsa. Izzy has a story to tell that should be made into a documentary . This coming from an African-American girl fro Queens no less that grow up listening to Symphony Sid and buying Fania and Alegre records.

That's the publishing industry brother. ALL independent magazines are predominantly fueled by "contributing writers" who don't receive compensation. That's the nature of the industry. Latin N.Y., and other indie publications, were and are stepping stones for one to move on to "greener pastures" for contributors. Some of whom went on to write for Billboard Magazine, Radio and Network television.
@nelsonperez5289 I think you missed the point. Nobody put a gun to your head man. If there was only one beneficiary of the magazine, whose fault was that?

One thing not being mentioned is that Izzy's Latin N.Y. magazine had all volunteers working for him while he was the only one reaping the benefits.

Pete Nater great trumpet player not so good as a interviewer lol Saludos Pete good job.
the salsa is Cuban music.
Afro-Cuban dance music or Son Cubano, promoted/marketed as "Salsa." Like it or not "Salsa" is the term its global market embraced and rallied around.
