A Venezuelan-born percussionist, and a cadre of impressive guest stars. All drum-driven tracks, including covers of Tito Puente & Fela Kuti hits. Quintero has performed with Puente, Herbie Hancock, Eddie Palmieri & others. Hot Afrobeat, Latin Jazz & Bossa rhythms with short detours into house. Seriously, seriously good! One star for each track, pick something at random, crank it up & dance. Yow!
