Columbia, 1973. Near Mint- ... $29.99
A really special record from a really special group – one of two sublime 70s gems from Azteca – a wicked blend of jazz, funk, Latin, and soul – all put together by a young Coke Escovedo! Coke's ostensibly the leader of the group, but there's also a richly collaborative feel going ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Nice original copy!)
Columbia, 2006. Near Mint- ... $2.99
Columbia, Early 50s. Very Good+ ... $0.99

Fania All Stars —
Que Pasa – The Best Of The Fania All Stars ... CD 
Columbia, Late 70s. New Copy ... $4.99 6.99
Some of the best of the best of The Fania All Stars – magical music from that short stint when the combo were recording for Columbia Records in the late 70s! While at Columbia, the group grew even more than the styles of their roots at the Fania label – picking up some hipper touches ... read more CD

Herbie Mann —
Big Boss Mann (aka Latin Mann) ... LP Columbia, 1965. Very Good ... Out Of Stock
An excellent album of Latin material from Herbie Mann – and proof that he's equally great in just about any setting! The album's a rare Columbia Records outing from Herbie – but it's easily one of his greatest of the 60s, thanks to some really smoking arrangements from Oliver Nelson ...

(70s pressing. Cover has some wear and light stains.)
Columbia, Late 60s. Very Good+ ... $19.99
Insanely wonderful Latin soul album recorded by Frank Owens that has the surprising (and goofy) bonus of being a Latiny rendition of the hit musical Oliver! Don't be put off by that cockney musical aspect of the source material, though – because the sound here is great New York Latin Soul, ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(Cover has a cutout hole, a name in pen, and some aging on the back.)
Columbia, Early 60s. Very Good ... $14.99
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). And although the liner notes claim that the Cumbia's great because you can ... read more LP, Vinyl record album

Columbia, 1959. Very Good ... $6.99

Mongo Santamaria —
Hey! Let's Party ... LP Columbia, Late 60s. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
Let's party is right! Mongo and his Latin Soul combo groove through a tight tasty batch of tracks, with heavy conga from Mongo, and killer soulful solos by Bobby Capers, Marty Sheller, and Hubert Laws. The set's got a few soul covers – like "Walk On By", "Shotgun", and ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(360 Sound mono pressing. Cover has a half split bottom seam, with a tape along the spine and a bit of marker on the back.)
Mongo Santamaria —
Stone Soul ... LP Columbia, 1969. Very Good ... Temporarily Out Of Stock
A killer album from Mongo Santamaria's classic 60s run for Columbia – and a record that also features some wonderful alto work from a young Sonny Fortune! Sonny's the key soloist on the record – bringing some sharp jazz elements to an album that's equal part Latin and 60s soul ... read more LP, Vinyl record album
(360 Sound stereo pressing. Cover has a sticker on the spine.)
Columbia, 1975. Used 2 CDs ... $12.99
A great live Santana set, recorded in Japan in '73 and never released on vinyl in the US!

Santana —
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. Titles include "Persuasion", "Evil ... (Rock, Latin) read more LP, Vinyl record album
