Tito Puente – Para Los Rumberos

Only 1 left in stock

$30.00

By virtue of his warm, flamboyant stage manner, longevity, constant touring, and appearances in the mass media, Tito Puente is probably the most beloved symbol of Latin jazz. But more than that, Puente managed to keep his music remarkably fresh over the decades; as a timbales virtuoso, he combined mastery over every rhythmic nuance with old-fashioned showmanship – watching his eyes bug out when taking a dynamic solo was one of the great treats for Latin jazz fans. A trained musician, he was also a fine, lyrical vibraphonist, a gifted arranger, and played piano, congas, bongos, and saxophone. 1972’s Para Los Rumberose is a truly magnificent recording showcasing Tito’s talent and musical mastery. Consisting of ten diverse tracks, the album was recorded at Pat Jacques Broadway Recording Studios in New York City in 1972. This 180g vinyl LP reissue has been all-analog mastered from the original tapes and features the original artwork reproduced on an old-school tip-on jacket.
