It was formed in 1970 by Ernesto Fruko Estrada who modeled it after the New York salsa sound of the Fania All-Stars, one of the leading salsa groups at the time. A favorite of Salsa DJ's around the Globe. Some have referred to Fruko y sus Tesos as Colombia's most important export.

Among the group's best known hits are Pura Candela, Los Charcos , El Preso, Cali de Rumba, Son de la Loma, El Patillero, Tania, Charanga Campesina, El Arbol and Cachondea. "El Preso" in particular is one of Colombia's most widely recognized and beloved songs.

The Cartagenan singer Joe Arroyo joined the group in 1973 and performed with the group for several years before embarking upon a solo career. Wilson "Saoko" Manyoma (of Cali, Colombia), formerly of Los Latin Brothers, and singer of El Preso, was also an important member of the band. He has also embarked on a solo career. Some had said that, without Wilson Manyoma's vocals, Fruko y sus Tesos would not have that flavor of Colombian Charanga.

Ernesto Fruko Estrada began his musical career at the age of 15 when he joined the legendary cumbia group, Los Corraleros de Majagual. It was with Los Corraleros back in 1968 that gave Fruko the first opportunity to travel to New York to witness the city's burgeoning salsa scene.

El Preso
by Fruko y Sus Tesos

Oye, te hablo desde la prisión

Wilson Manjoma, Borbona

Y dice

En el mundo en que yo vivo
Siempre hay cuatro esquinas
Pero entre esquina y esquina
Siempre habra lo mismo
Para mi no existe el cielo
Ni luna ni estrellas
Para mi no alumbra el sol
Pa' mi todo es tinieblas

Ay ay ay que negro es mi destino
Ay ay ay todos de mi se alejan
Ay ay ay perdí toda esperanza
Ay a Dios sólo llegan mis quejas

Condenado para siempre
En esta horrible celda
Donde no llega el cariño
Ni la voz de nadie
Aquí me paso los días
Y la noche entera
Sólo vivo del recuerdo
Eterno de mi madre

Ay ay ay sólo espero que llegue
Ay ay ay el día que la muerte
Ay ay ay me lleve a estar con ella
Ay al fin, ay cambiara a mi suerte

Y sigue el lamento
Para los de villa nueva

Ay que sólo estoy
Sólo me espera la muerte
Ay que sólo estoy
Cuando cambiara mi suerte

Voz Hombre triste soledad
Vivir en esta condena
Ya no quiero sufrir mas
Te lo digo Magdalena

Ay que sólo estoy
Sólo me espera la muerte
Ay que sólo estoy
Cuando cambiara mi suerte

Compañeros de prisión
Gente de todas las clases
Que no tienen corazón
Y no saben lo que hacen

Sólo con mi pena
Sólo en mi condena
Sólo con mi pena
Sólo en mi condena

Oye Fruko solo voy con mis penas
En esta celda, treinta años de condena ay
