Personnaly I found this offering, Snowboy's "Pit Bull Latin Jazz", very
bland. There's much better Latin music than Snowboy. Save your money and
get something else. Nothing worst than bland music. I recommend NuYorican
Soul, Tito Puente, Dave Valentine,...

I commented on this one a long time ago, shortly after getting it. While
some might claim this is not acid jazz, despite the connection with the
origing of that term, it's definitely a great latin album that rocks
those
Cuban beats. I was just listening to it again the other day and enjoying
the energy and rhythms. It's not my favorite Snowboy album (the much
earlier one whose Spanish title escapes me since I'm at work--the two
words start with E and M, I think), but it works for me in the "get up
and
shake to the rhythms" department. Oh, it's Snowboy and the Latin Section
(the group) and Pit Bull Latin Jazz, I believe, for the album title.
