Tito Allen has been played on NTS in shows including Bump City w/ Billy Goods , featured first on 14 January 2023. Songs played include Rumba Caliente.

Born Roberto Romero, Allen started singing in 1962, relocated to New York City ten years later and hooked up with Ray Barretto’s band, singing the monster hit “Indestructible” in 1973. During the 1980s and ’90s he worked with all the superstars of salsa, including Ruben Blades and the late Tito Puente. Some of his biggest hits are “Ahora y Siempre,” “Maldades” and “Unique.” In 1995 Allen made his first foray to the U.K. where he remains tremendously popular. His most recent recording is the 2006 CD, “Untouchable.” Allen ad-libs throughout his performances, which adds an exciting element of surprise to his otherwise smooth-as-silk singing style.
