Reader Reviews
"Charanga" lovers will be delighted with this CD which features a great early 60's compilation by Mongo and his charanga style ensemble. This 1996 Fantasy re-issue also features luminaries like famous cuban flutist Rolando Lozano of Orquesta Aragon and Orquesta America fame, Jose "Chombo"Silva on violin and sax, Rudy Calzado formerly of Orquestas Fajardo and Enrique Jorrin in Cuba and Mexico and others here in the U.S. Felix "Pupi"Legarreta, also on violin, Joao Donato on piano, Willie Bobo on percussion, Victor Venegas on bass and Cuco Martinez on timbal. As usual Mongo and the Fantasy record label assembled an all-star cast for their latin-jazz recording sessions. If you like Mongo and above all "charangas", this is your CD.
