Great and largely undiscovered album that perfectly blends contemporary jazz with latin and synth. It is hard not to like tracks like Siete Oarati and the dead funky Punk Luck. German only release on inide labl CMP wh...

Highly recommended latin jazz by Gerry Mulligan and Astor Piazzolla who collaborated on a number of albums. This one is their best. Packed with symphonic pieces it is a joy to listen to and should also sit well with ...

Seriously slept on Cal Tjader recording with Clare Fisher involved. Where Is Love is a nice clubby tune, wonderful oriental vibes on Reza but check the tittle track, one of the best midtempo latin jazz funk pieces I h...

Very rare latin jazz compilation with Opa, Flora Purim and Pete & Sheila Escovedo among the contributors. As the tittle suggest the record mixes straight latin with jazz fusion. There are nice breakbeat drums on Stanl...

Very rare and highly recommended Venezuelean latin release with Eddie Santiago and Carlos Soto heavily involved. Top choice for latin DJs but also a great listen at home. Original Venezuelean pressing in strongest EX ...

More goodies by the Venezuelean ladies man on top form. Salsa action from start to finish never taking focus off the bedroom as the end result. Check Insaciable for a feel of the vibes...

Briliant Columbian salsa release with Soy Campesino and Adios A Palma Soriano top tracks for the floor. Top copy in shrink, a few pen marks on back.

For fans of clubby European salsa not often for sale this is a recommended pick. Recorded in the Netherlands, pressed in Germany, sounds like a Puerto Rican classic. Nice one!

Want all the cracking Rene Bloch boogaloo and mambo dancers without splashing out big cash on the ATCO release this is a great alternative. Clarion pressing with Mr Latin's Mambo, Pa Coco Solo and Mambo Watusi (only o...

Masterpiece Chucho Valdes affair that jazz, balearic, latin fans would all likely enjoy. All about the b-side title track Invitacion, a 16 min opus of experimental jazz funk. Mindblowing! Copy is VG with marks on viny...

A one track album but what a track indeed. Check out the great Anicanao, cheerful stuff for the dancefloor. Very rare record but unfortunately pretty beaten up vinyl, however the Anicano plays well enough to serve the...

Don't know what it is about this track but it really gets me going. Maybe its the Ray Barretto production or Bobby Rodriguez taking off on a tight salsa tip. Love it! Super rare 45 on Vaya.

Essential item for the latin DJ or collector. Harvey Averne production and mixed by Tom Moulton this is a real treat. Super rare 45 in original Coco Records company sleeve. Don't sleep - it is rare!

Essential and rare Tico 45 from Joe Cuba. The Louie Ramirez production here is perfect for a latin or cosmic mix. First time in stock. Some visual groove wear but still a fine copy.

Hard to judge by the cover if anything sweet is on here but little did I know that Peruvian soul diva Eva Ayllon lands a killer groove that ends with a sample ready breakbeat. As expected from a Peruvian original, the...

Gene Page craftsmanship with Ray Barreto, Bobby Valentin, Johnny Pacheco and many other top talents, how can it be anything but funky. The famous intro of Cha Cha Cha has been sampled notoriously but listen to the bes...

Seldom seen 60s deep groove pressing by famous Cuban percussionist Humberto Canto. A fine blend of mambo, cha cha, samba and other quality cuts on here but the standout track is Piano, Tumba Y Contrabajo which is high...

Laurindo Almeida arrangement and Bud Shank on fine form, this is strongly jazz infused latin experiment. Nice version of Round About Midnight and the lovely Harlem Samba are my favorites but overall a good listen. Ear...

Very early latin jazz recording by Cal Tjader backed by a young Willie Bobo and Mongo Santamaria. All pretty mellow stuff good for a Sunday afternoon of chilling. Later pressing with blue / white Fantasy label.

This one practically never shows up on vinyl. German salsa unit that gets loud and fast on the percussions but also downright funky as you will hear on the clip. Rare item in beautiful conditon.
