A 14-piece band (heavy on horns & perc) lead by percussionist Edgardo Cintron. Latin jazz/funk/soul featuring a few covers of 60s and 70s hits (where they sound like a Latin “Earth, Wind & Fire” at times). Occasionally on the fine line between fun and cheesy. The playing is solid though, lots of brass, percussion, and vocals (although some odd duets).
1. A lazy midtempo cha-cha groove.
2. Bright & breezy love song w/some nice percussion.
3. Lively cha-cha for horns/chorus/perc.
4. Nice midtempo love song w/good use of brass/vocals.
*5. Uptempo Latin funk
*6. Upbeat jazz w/great energy. Instrumental.
7. Midtempo cha-cha for chorus/horns/perc.
8. Funky, upbeat love song. Not fond of the lyrics, though.
9. Romantic slow dance.
10. Chorus/perc/horns. Mid/uptempo.
11. Upbeat version of a classic.
12. A capella intro into a mid/uptempo love song.
