Alegre Records was a New York City record label specialized in latin music. It was founded in 1956 [ 1 ] by Al Santiago who owned a 1950s record store at 8522 Westchester Avenue in The Bronx named Casalegre and co-founded by clothing businessman Ben Perlman.
These were followed by Puerto Rican All-Stars (1963) and Tributo a Noro (1964). Kako was a member of the Alegre All-Stars (and its spin-off Cesta All-Stars) and recorded with Alegre Records music director and pianist Charlie Palmieri. His important role in the group was reflected in songs like Estoy buscando a Kako and Kako y Palmieri.
