"By the time Sexteto Miramar's groundbreaking ¡Salsa! Mi Hermana LP was released in 1968 they had been performing for over a decade and had gone through changes in both personnel and instrumentation. Formed in Medellín as a children's 'murguita' (little holiday party band) that used to annoy the neighbors, they quickly grew into a hot teen combo specializing in Cuban and Colombian music with accordion and sax arrangements in a conjunto (small group) format, eventually recording for local labels including Zeida. During this time the group had several hits that became standards including 'Carruseles' and 'Cumbia Del Sol'. By the mid-1960s the old band had dissolved and original founding member and bandleader/arranger Hernán Builes had formed a new outfit, signing with Zeida rival Discos Fuentes. Miramar then recorded an obscure album of tropical music called Cumbias Con El Miramar, sounding much like their earlier records. However, inspired by New York's Joe Cuba Sextet and La Playa Sextet, several years later Builes decided to swap the folkloric accordion for the more contemporary sounding electric guitar, piano and vibes and signed a new contract with Fuentes under the name Sexteto Miramar. During this period Miramar featured several vocalists who would later go on to greater fame, including Humberto Muriel, Johnny Moré and Rodolfo Aicardi. The newly minted Sexteto Miramar were perhaps the first Colombian group to use the term 'salsa' as a musical genre when they recorded ¡Salsa! Mi Hermana. The record was also their first album as a sextet under their new name, instrumentation and membership... The album features several originals as well as cover versions of New York Latin and Cuban tunes first popularized by Orquesta América Del '55, Tito Rodríguez, Celia Cruz, Sabú Martínez, La Playa Sextet, Joe Cuba Sextet, and the Peruvian group Pepe Moreno Y Su All-Star Band. As to how Builes came up with the album's signature tune, 'Salsa Boogaloo', he had most likely been listening to Venezuelan radio broadcasts of the new Latin records by artists such as Pete Rodriguez, Ricardo Ray, and Johnny Colón coming out of New York, which had been described as 'salsa' since 1966 by bohemian disc-jockey Phidias Danilo Escalona . . . According to Muriel, the fact that ¡Salsa! Mi Hermana did not have any overtly Colombian genres like cumbia and instead concentrated on foreign sounds such as guajira, mambo, charanga, bolero, guaguancó, guaracha, boogaloo, and salsa meant that the band was consciously trying to update Colombian tastes."
