His early influences included the great Cuban vocalists Beny Moré and Miguelito Cuní (b. 8 May 1920, Pinar del Río, Cuba, d. 5 March 1984, Havana, Cuba). Santiago started his professional career singing with trios and playing bass and
guitar. After stints with the bands of Chuíto Vélez, Willie Rodríguez and Willie Rosario, his career really took off when he joined Ray Barretto's band. Between 1966-72, Adalberto made seven albums (excluding compilations) with Ray Barretto. In late 1972, Adalberto and four other members of Barretto's band departed to found Tipica 73. He appeared on three of their albums before disagreement over musical direction
led him, and three other band members, to split during the mid-70s to form Los Kimbos. Meanwhile, Santiago sang lead vocals on two critically acclaimed charanga albums, "Fantasia Africana/African Fantasy" and "Our Heritage - Nuestra Herencia", by flautist, composer and producer Lou Pérez. Los Kimbos were reputed to be a tough working band and had a sound reminiscent of both the pre-split Ray Barretto band and Tipica 73. With them, Adalberto recorded 1976's "Los Kimbos" and "The Big Kimbos With Adalberto Santiago" in1977. That year he made his solo debut on "Adalberto", which was produced by Ray Barretto and contained two of his own compositions. Los Kimbos continued under the leadership of timbales player Orestes Vilató and released two further albums- "Hoy y Mañana" (1978) and "Aquacero Ne Me Moja" (1979). Santiago sang lead on one track on "Louie Ramírez y sus Amigos" by Louie Ramírez. In 1979, Adalberto and Ramírez co-produced his solo follow-up, "Adalberto Featuring Popeye El Marino". The same year, he reunited with Ray Barretto on "Rican/Struction". Ray produced Adalberto's next solo album, "Feliz Me Siento", the following year. Sonora Matancera member, Javier Vázquez, produced, arranged, directed and played piano on the rootsy Adalberto Santiago,
which was Adalberto's contribution to the early 80s tipico (typical) salsa revival. In 1982, he teamed up with bandleader/bongo player Roberto Roena for "Super Apollo" 47:50. Santiago co-produced "Calidad" with Papo Lucca, who also played piano, arranged one track and oversaw musical direction. His "Cosas
Del Alma" was an album of lush boleros which included his third recorded version
of the classic 'Alma Con Alma' (previously contained on Barretto's "The Message" and "Gracias"). He returned to harder-edged urban salsa in 1985 on "Mas Sabroso". Adalberto did his own mature version of salsa romántica on the classy Sex Symbol, with production, arrangements, musical direction and piano by the ubiquitous Isidro Infante. In 1990, he again performed 'Alma Con Alma', this time arranged by Infante in a salsa romántica style for Louie Ramírez's second album entitled "Louie Ramírez y sus Amigos". Santiago has written songs for a number of the albums on which he has appeared,
both as bandleader and solo artist, and provided compositions for other artists to
record, such as Joe Cuba. Adalberto has remained true to his Latin roots and a statement he made in 1977 is still relevant in the 90s: 'I want to bring a truly Latin message to the people; this is what I do best and the structure of Latin music is best suited to my singing style'.

La noche mas linda
Adalberto Santiago Lyrics
Y yo llegue a tu casa temblando de miedo y te pedí el perdón que yo nunca concedo
Te confesé que no conseguí reemplazarte y te dejé en tu alcoba después de besarte
Tus besos eran soles, mis manos puñales tu sonrisa y la mía se dijeron "te quiero"
Y brotaron las frases poco tradicionales en una mujer libre y un hombre soltero
Y esa fue la noche mas linda del mundo aunque nos durara tan solo un segundo
Mas no me arrepiento porque aquel momento lo llevo grabado en mi pensamiento
Y esa fue la noche mas linda del mundo aunque nos durara tan solo un segundo
Que no me arrepiento porque aquel momento lo llevo grabado en mi pensamiento
Tu lecho en mi memoria, amigos ya viejos el reloj de pared y la puerta de espejos
Nos vieron otra vez a los dos reflejados cometiendo uno a uno nuestros siete pecados
Me bebí de tu cuerpo la pal y la savia con una mezcla extraña de amor y de rabia
Primero nos amamos y luego lloramos y al final por exceso de amor nos separamos
Y esa fue la noche mas linda del mundo aunque nos durara tan solo un segundo
Mas no me arrepiento porque aquel momento lo llevo grabado en mi pensamiento
Y esa fue la noche mas linda del mundo aunque nos durara tan solo un segundo
Que no me arrepiento porque aquel momento lo llevo grabado en mi pensamiento
La noche más linda del mundo, la he pasado yo contigo
Que noche, que noche nunca la olvido
Te confesé que no, no conseguí reemplazarte
Porque al fin me he dado cuenta que nunca podré olvidarte
La noche más linda del mundo, la he pasado yo contigo
Que noche, que noche nunca la olvido
Tus besos eran soles mis manos puñales
Y brotaron las frases poco tradicionales esa noche
La noche más linda del mundo, la he pasado yo contigo
Que noche, que noche nunca la olvido
La noche más linda del mundo, la he pasado yo contigo
Que noche, que noche nunca la olvido
La puerta de espejos nos vio reflejados
Cometiendo uno a uno nuestros siete, siete, siete, siete pecados
La noche más linda del mundo, la he pasado yo contigo
Que noche, que noche nunca la olvido
La última noche que pasé contigo la llevo guardada como fiel testigo
Aquellos momentos en que fuiste mía ay, que divinos
La noche más linda del mundo, la he pasado yo contigo
Que noche, que noche nunca la olvido

Esa canción me hace acordar una noche en la que iba a verla después de mucho tiempo me sorprendió y me alegro el hecho de decir que me quería ver , yo me cambie me aliste bailaba por fuera y por dentro y temblaba cuando estaba en la esquina de su casa era como las 12 la vi la saludé no podía parar de sonreir ella tampoco nos sentamos en un parque y nos dijimos muchas cosas pero nos reiamos por cualquier cosa decidimos seguir caminando a lugares donde ella tenía miedo que nos roben y yo le bromeaba le decía si nos roban tu te vas corriendo y gritas yo me quedo a distraerlos jaja pero en eso ella me agarra de la mano por atrás y pone su cabeza en mi hombro y su voz le temblaba y suspiraba y me decía que quería besarme y pues lo hicimos fue el beso mas bonito con la Luna y la noche de testigo estuvimos horas riendo hast que tenía que irse pero ella no quería soltarne , la mujer que ame ya no está sólo me queda recuerdos..LA NOCHE MAS LINDA DEL MUNDO LA HE PASADO YO CONTIGO QUE NOCHE

Oye qué gran historia, me ha encantado leer éste relato, el sentimiento está plasmado en cada palabra, cada línea. ¡Me encantó!
Es una gran canción, ideal para recordar bellos momentos que has pasado con esa persona, que es especial, que no se olvida y como bien dice la canción, al final por exceso de amor nos separamos ...
