Rhythm Machine ... CD Columbia/Fania, 1977. Used ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
One of the proudest moments of the New York Latin underground – a time when some of its best players wound up playing for Columbia, through a brief affiliation between Fania and the larger label!

Sorcery! ... LP Columbia, Late 50s. Near Mint- ... Out Of Stock
A strange little record – a bit different than usual from percussionist Sabu Martinez, and with a slight exotica feel too!

Carmen Rivero —
A Bailar La Cumbia ... LP Columbia, Early 60s. Very Good ... $19.99
Tight record of earlier Cumbia stuff, recorded by Columbia as part of their great Latin series from the early 60's (when the Catskills market was big enough to make it worthwhile for major labels to put this stuff out).

Columbia, Late 60s. Very Good ... $7.99
A stone 60s smoker from Mongo Santmaria – and a great little set that really lives up to its title!

Santana (1969) ... LP Columbia, 1969. Very Good+ ... Out Of Stock
A crossover Latin Funk classic – with the kind of soaring guitar/organ grooves that were the brilliant sound of the 70s for the West Coast scene, a whole new way of playing Latin Soul that blew away the New York sound of the late 70s.

Latin Percussion Method ... LP Columbia (Japan), 1972. Very Good Gatefold ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A hard-driving Latin set from early 70s Japan – served up in a non-nonsense mode that's arguably more classic than most American work of the time!
