One of Machito's best Latin sides, and a nice batch of Cha Cha tracks recorded for Tico in the late 50's, and issued on the budget Forum label at a slightly later date. The groove is nice and hard, with fairly raw production, and a good sound that's different from most of his other LPs from the 50's. Titles include "Asia Minor", "Besame La Bembita", "El Campesino", "Choclate Cha Cha Cha", and "Tibiri Tabara". LP, Vinyl record album
Excellent 2LP set that brings together a whole bunch of great Machito sides from the late 40s. This is classic stuff that defined the Latin jazz idiom, and stood as an inspiration to players for years. The group includes Mario Bauza on trumpet, Jose Madera on tenor, Frank Davila on trumpet, Jose Mangual on bongos, and Machito and Graciela on vocals. The set includes 24 tracks, with the titles "Asia Minor", "Jungle Drums", "Donkey Serenade", "Mambo Jambo", "Babalu", and "Gone City". Great stuff, and very hard to find otherwise.
