[6] In 1968, Pacheco created a supergroup known as the Fania All-Stars that brought together the elite of his salsa musicians and singers for joint performances and recording.

Pacheco directed the band to an excited crowd who cheered on each Fania All-Star member.

[12] Masucci died in 1997, and for the next eight years Fania and all of its assets were tied up in probate court while various parties battled over its ownership.

[13] In an effort to create additional content, Código Records, a subsidiary of the Emusica label, allowed DJs and producers to remix original material.
