Eight years after its creation, Fania Records had accumulated such a sizeable catalogue of artists that it began to issue compilations from its roster of hit-making stars such as Willie Colón, Larry Harlow, Johnny Pacheco, and Ray Barretto. In fact, 'Crime Pays' was the first anthology the label put out in 1972. The ironically titled 'Crime Pays' was a comment on the success of Colón's carefully cultivated bad guy image that he sustained until the mid-1970s. The anthology compiles nine key cuts from his first four albums.
