Cuban born, now based in Canada. Delicious Latin jazz from his nonet, with occasional guests sitting in. Tracks range from Cuban and American classics to original tunes. All marked by his warm vocals, tight arrangements, hot horns, lively percussion, and a rich, sophisticated sound. It’s solid big band jazz, that makes me wish I was in a nightclub. With lots of drinkies. *1. Lively and swinging uptempo son w/great trumpet break. 2. Clarinet-led samba (by Paquito D’Rivera) instrumental. So good! *3. 30s classic , midtempo dance w/nice horns/piano/perc. 4. Mancini goes Latin. Jazzy, midtempo rework w/good piano. 5. Horns/perc/sax/guitar, instru. Mid/uptempo. *6. Gorgeous ballad duet w/his dad. Sigh… *7. Jazzy, upbeat son w/flamenco hints. 8. Another classic updated w/big vocals & lots of flair. Upbeat. *9. Strong, midtempo mambo w/a late night, small club feel. 10. Brassy, mid/uptempo love song. Paco, I want to dance! | ||
