Reviewed 2007-07-27
The Latin percussion giant wanders through some covers (Shotgun, Knock on Wood), some jazz, and some hip Latin grooves. His band rocks with hot horns, hip vocals, and wicked-good percussion. Great guests (including Maceo Parker and Booker T. Jones) Yummy! And all so good. Just hit play, you can’t go wrong.

1. Hip and funky with a catchy groove. Midtempo.
2. Upbeat and so slick Latin jazz w/lots of style/flair.
3. Solid midtempo funk w/hip Hammond accents.
4. Upbeat salsa jazz w/cool vocals.
5. A shimmery, sophisticated cha cha.
6. Mostly midtempo jazz w/a serious sax groove & great perc riffs.
7. Mid/upbeat dance w/bright horns, great vox, and general goodness.
8. Percussion moving this mid/upbeat jazz jam w/sweet horns.
9. Keyboards, perc, vox, a sweet midtempo dance w/a romantic air.
10. Serious funk, midtempo w/lots of sassiness from the band.
