Los Ahijados played son, the Cuban form that has always had, and still has, a substantial following in the Dominican Republic. In the 70s he formed a dance band, variously known as Los Virtuosos and El Tribu, which included his son Ramón Orlando Valoy (who would become well-known in the 80s as bandleader Ramón Orlando) on piano.
