José Luis Feliciano was called Cheo during his illustrious career as a composer and performer of salsa music. After his death in 2014, his hometown of Ponce created a walkway in his honor. Paseo del la Salsa Cheo Feliciano is located between Paseo Atocha and Plaza del Mercado Isabel Segunda. Cheo is not to be confused with another prolific Puerto Rican singer: José Feliciano. The later musician was propelled to fame during the 1960’s for his hit pop songs despite being blind at birth.
