Ray Barretto (April 29, 1929 – February 17, 2006) was an American Grammy Award-winning Latin/Latin jazz musician of Puerto Rican ancestry.

Barretto (whose surname is really "Barreto"; a mistake at the time Ray's birth certificate was filed gave his last name its formal spelling) was born in New York City. His parents moved to New York from Puerto Rico in the early 1920s, looking for a better life. He was raised in Spanish Harlem and at a very young age was influenced by his mother's love of music and by the jazz music of musicians such as Duke Ellington and Count Basie.

In 1946, when Barretto was 17 years old, he joined the Army. While stationed in Germany, Barretto met Belgian vibist Fats Sadi, who was working there. However, it was when he heard Dizzy Gillespie's "Manteca" with Cuban composer/percussionist Chano Pozo that he realized his true calling in life.

Barretto died of heart failure and complications of multiple health issues on February 17, 2006 at the Hackensack University Medical Center in New Jersey. His body was flown to Puerto Rico, where Barretto was given formal honors by the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture; his remains were eventually cremated.

*** POLICIES ***

Disclaimer:  I attempt to describe items as honestly, and in as much detail, as I can. Unless stated otherwise, assume merchandise is used. All items are sold “as is”, new or used.

Shipping and Handling:  The U. S. Postal Service is used unless stated otherwise. Combined shipping is used whenever possible. Sometimes, items are prepackaged and are not easily combined. Buyer assumes responsibility for uninsured items. There is a modest $2 handling fee charged for the first item, which only helps to cover all the various expenses involved in running an eBay store (purchasing stock, shipping materials, advertising, etc). An additional $2 handling fee will be added for each additional item. International orders will receive an extra $1.00 handling fee (one time only) and will be shipped Priority Mail International or First Class Mail International. NOTE: The above S&H policies do not apply to Music, Books, DVD’s, Movies or Video Games, as those shipping fees are now being regulated by eBay.

Insurance:   If you would like to insure your purchase, just let me know before you pay. Uninsured items are the buyer's responsibility.

Invoicing:  Accepted payments are Paypal or credit cards linked to Paypal. Multiple purchases will be invoiced together for purchases within a 5 day period. If you are interested in items beyond 5 days, please ask before bidding.  If you check out before receiving an invoice (multiple purchasers only) the S&H may not reflect a discount.

Refunds: All sales are final unless you receive the wrong merchandise, or misrepresented merchandise. In that case, I will bear all costs involved. If a refund should be granted for any other reason, it will not include shipping and handling fees.  Please ask before bidding or buying. If necessary, additional pictures may be e-mailed to answer questions.

Feedback:  Feedback is the lifeblood of eBay. It is how we judge, reward and punish each other in a public forum. As both a buyer and seller, I have often been disappointed with a deal through no fault of either party. On my end, positive feedback will always be left for a courteous, prompt paying buyer (even if the buyer has been difficult to deal with). I expect the same if I am a courteous, prompt shipping seller (even if the merchandise isn’t exactly what you may have expected). I’m very proud of my 100% positive selling record and work hard to maintain it. My thanks to those folks who left positive messages, even when things didn’t work out the way we would have preferred.
