uc> I just have bought a brilliant compilation by Soul Jazz Records called
uc> NUYORICA!. It contains latin-jazz-funk tunes from mid-70s Spanish
uc> Harlem (El Barrio). Classic tracks by artist such as Joe Battaan,
uc> Cachao,
MAJOR salsa composer!
uc> Eddie Palmieri,... are compiled in this double cd. It comes
uc> with a very complete booklet that introduce you every musician.
uc> Absolutely funky and danceable!! Also for those interested in this
uc> kind of latin music i recommend you another cd called "Quiero
uc> boogaloo" (Manzana records)
"i want boogaloo", yes i do!
uc> but i'm not sure if it's available outside
uc> Spain. Talking about Eddie Palmieri, i saw him recently playing in my
uc> town (Santander, northern Spain). It was a really hot concert. His
uc> piano was supported by a fantastic trumpetist (ex-Jazz Messenger). I
probably terence blanchard
uc> also have to mention the percussionists.
who were they?
uc> Another record to pay attention (if you like funky soundtracks from
uc> the 70s) is "The chase scene. volume III". It features the Starsky &
uc> Hutch theme among others. What about the previous volumes ?
i think the 1st features a lot of Quincy Jones' stuff from the same
period
