Keeping it latin but big band afro cuban stylee.
Arranged by Oliver Nelson and featuring such luminaries as Monguito,Potato Valdez,Chick Corea,Dave Pike,Jimmy Heath and Carmell Jones this is a stonking lp.
Slamming versions of "Jungle Fantasy","Manteca"and "Ave Maria Morena" make it another album that easily hits the "All Killer No Filler" category.
Highly Recommended.
Ripped @320 from the original vinyl-No reissues in any format

I really recommend it!
Great fun music...I needed it some like this!!
By the way, track 9 have very different sound (and low sound level signal) and musical interpretation (less jazz, more latin) compared with other tracks....it is extracted from same album ??
Thanks a lot , man!!!!
Have you any good Rufus Harley?
Thanks for all your fine work.
Thanks Bacoso!!
Killer versions of Jungle Fantasy and Manteca on this album. Great post Bacoso, thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much for this one. Really great sruff. You are doing terrific job here.
Could you maybe repost George Braith album Musart? Now that I've red what you had written about it, I am dying to hear it!
Thanks for posting this. Herbie Mann is always welcome and a worth listening.
A long time ago, this was part of my vinyl collection. Then I had to sell all those records to pay the rent. Didn't get anywhere near enough, but I've spent the last 12 years trying to rebuild. This'll help. Thank you.
