Orquesta Mayómbe: Con El Ritmo Del Tambó

New copy. Pickup possible at Digelius Music in Helsinki (by selecting the "local pickup" shipping option).

The second in Jazz Room’s occasional Pure Latin releases this Masterpiece first emerged in 1980 and is an outstanding example of the Classic Era NuYorican El Barrio Underground Sound! If you dug the TATA VASQUEZ LP on Jazz Room or Grupo Folklorico Y Experimental Nuevayorquino – Concepts In Unity then this is for you.

Featuring the Nuyorican Afro-Cuban Jazz Heavyweights of the day including THE Legendary Chocolate Armenteros, Jose Mangual, Mauricio Smith and Orestes Vilato from the Fania All Stars and a huge seven man Percussion Section it really blasts out the Afro-Latin message.

A part history of the Afro-Cuban Music Journey from the Hinterlands of Cuba via Havana and eventually arriving in Jazz Age New York it is a welcome addition to the Jazz Room Catalogue (as well as being one of Jazz Room Head Honcho Paul Murphy’s favourite albums).

Floor filler cuts for Latin Lovers with “Esa Brujeria” always turning up the heat.

Re-Mastered from the Original Master Tapes to give that Extra Heavy Percussive Latin-Jazz Action!… more
