Mongo was always sorta in to the soul side of latin jazz music. his earlier
stuff is more straight ahead as your would expect. he does have a couple of
outstanding albums stuffed in the middle of his career. _Stone Soul_ features
mostly covers of things like "son of a preacher man," "donaldon's "who's makin
love," "little green apples," and whitfield's "could nine". Next album,
_workin on a groovy thing_ features "its your thing," "Spinning wheel" and "we
got latin soul." Both albums have got the mighty Bernard Purdie on drums. Not
bad buys if you find em for under 4-5 bucks.
