Yo AJ nation,
I know there was this big hype about Snowboy and comparison to Tito
Puente, and some said superior to Tito. I found Snowboy's stuff to be
bland, lacking creativity. Now concerning comparisons to Tito, no contest
Tito rocks da house.

Tahira, the 2 albums that I have (people tree and U have been watching)
are both pretty similar in sound. they are very cassic rock with a slight
lean to the funky side. very good music, but I don't consider it to be
acid jazz, and really don't understand why it is classified as such.

but then i would say the same about snowboy, which is put out on the same
label. good latin jazz, but nothing which says acid jazz to me.
confusing.
