Aché (album)

Aché is a 1982 album by the Cuban singer Merceditas Valdés. It was a return to recording after a long absence from the studio, and the first of four albums of Yoruba-roots influenced music. The album won an EGREM prize. Aché is the Cuban spelling of Ase, the Orisha term for "life power", and Valdés herself was sometimes known by the nickname "Little Aché".
