SynopsisRUDY VELOZ, played by Ruben Blades, the real-life Panamanian-born salsa star, is a handsome, talented ''NuYorican'' musician and singer, a star on New York City's ill- paying Latino circuit. Rudy is in his mid-30's and has just signed a recording contract that promises to take him out of Spanish Harlem and make his fortune in the English-speaking, American music market. He can hardly contain his excitement, while his longtime girlfriend, Liz (Elizabeth Peña), is worried about what fame might do their relationship.
