Puerto Rico All Stars

The Puerto Rico All Stars (abbr. PRAS) was a salsa & latin jazz ensemble band that was founded in 1977 by the Late Frankie Gregory "Frankie Bulldog". Based in Puerto Rico, the Puerto Rico All Stars (not to be confused with the 1963 namesake band of a similar name, the Puerto Rican All-Stars Featuring Kako) were an alternative and rival to the New York based Fania All-Stars created by Johnny Pacheco.

PRAS produced three albums that were released consecutively on an annual basis between 1977-1979. A fourth return album was released in 1996.
