El dúo es conocido por ayudar a establecer la popularidad de la salsa en los 1960s y 1970s. También son notables por fusionar elementos de música clásica y rock con música latina tradicional. Entre sus mayores éxitos están "Richie's Jala Jala", "Agúzate", "Sonido Bestial" y "Bomba Camará".

El dúo fue popular de 1965 a 1974 en América Latina y Estados Unidos, especialmente en los países caribeños. En 1974, después de su conversión al evangelicalismo y la inclusión de temas religiosos en las letras de sus canciones, la popularidad del dúo cayó.
