Ritmo Jazz Latino - A new direction.......2000-12-27

There is no doubt that Latin and Afro-Cuban music is enjoying a wave of renewed popularity throughout the world. Flute and Saxophone player Bobby Ramirez has recorded a CD which identifies some of the directions which this music may move though a fusion of "Ritmo Jazz Latino". Basically this a move away from the emphasis of the clave rhythm while retaining the essential Latin American rhythms of the music.

Bobby Ramirez on flute and tenor saxophone is joined on the eleven tracks on this recording by a variety of other artists. These include Abel Pabon, Silvano Monasterios, Daniel Zaremba, Mike Orta (Piano, Keyboards), Manny Patino, Nicky Orta, Ramses Colon (Bass), Archie Pena, Ruben Jiminez (Drums), Perry Colon, Carlos Planas, Tony Verdejo, Freddy Lugo, Ray Ray (Congas/Percussion), Feliciano Gomez (trumpet), Nicolina Ferrentino (Baritone Sax), Seth Ines (Trombone), Victor Espinola (Harp) and Juan Areco (Guitar).

By its very nature the broad scope of music covered on the CD will hold some appeal to many listeners while to others the appeal may not hold for every track. The opening self-penned "Sao Paulo" leads the listener gently into this musical fusion with a lilting rhythm and the familiar sound of flute and congas . Another Ramirez composition "Mambo Chereke" builds as it is explosively punctuated by the rhythm section. On tenor sax Ramirez sounds fully in control of the familiar Santamaria tune"Afro Blue" and on "Historia De Un Amor" 'smokes' as a ballad player. Bobby returns to flute for Mancini's "Days Of Wine And Roses" whch moves at a fast clip as does the original samba "Song For Maria". "Just Friends" features Bobby on vocals and saxophone as the group works its way through this familar tune.

To a lesser degree the following pieces did not completely work (to my ears) for a variety of reasons. "La Comparsa" felt far too restrained, in parts, in its execution; "Uno" sounded more like a recital piece then a fully formed communication; "Corcorvado (Quiet Nights)" was marred by over recording of voice and piano detracting from its normally associated gentleness; "Anciedad" while beautifully executed, sounded somewhat out of place on this recording.

Antonio Carlos Bonfa ????.......2002-02-21

Well, either someone at the label that put this compilation together or someone at Amazon needs to stay after school and write "I will not butcher the names or works of neither Antonio Carlos Jobim nor Luiz Bonfa again" 1000 times on the blackboard without using cut and paste. Who, pray tell, is Antonio Carlos Bonfa ?? (check out the track listings) Shame, shame. :(

Simply Superb.......2004-06-16

I have owned and listened to a large number of latin jazz recordings over the past many many years. Common to many enjoyed works by various artists in different musical forms, a lot of those recordings found less and less play time in my home. This is not to say that the music was bad, but rather that it just no longer struck that chord of interest in my ear to yield the freshness associated with the times that I first listened to it. As a result, many of my latin recordings, along with other genres, found themselves making the passage to the local used music bins. Not so with this recording!! Every single time that I pop it into my player, it bangs out vibrant and rich. The music is so simply and masterfully played, with such variance and beautiful flow, that I am basically struck dead by its power. If there is just ONE single latin jazz CD that you wish to have in your collection (who knows why THAT would be so!?), then make it this one. You will not be disappointed.

A small note....My copy of this CD was issued in Canada on a different recording label (TH-Rodven Records, Inc., TH-12092). From the beginning, I suspected that the track listings on my CD were incorrect. Listening to the samples on the Amazon site has confirmed my suspicions. The listings on the CD available at Amazon are correct. But if you own a copy similar to mine, you will want to re-enumerate the listings on the descriptive insert. For recording TH-12092, the track titles that are listed in the same order as that shown for the CD available at Amazon correspond in order to tracks 9, 10, 8, 1, 6, 7, 5, 2, 11, 12, 3, and 4 on the CD.

If you want to have a Cachao record then buy this one..........2003-07-25

When Andy Garcia introduced Cachao to a wider American audience with the "Master Sessions", Cachao had already attained the status of "living legend" for those of us fortunate enough to listen to the recordings included in this CD.

If you do not have a Cachao CD then buy this one and play "Guajeo de Saxos" first. If you don't start dancing, clapping your hands or moving some part of your body to Guillermo Barreto's killer "cascara" then no other record will do that for you!!! These sessions are so tight and swinging that this record is among the top 10 of all time in Cuban music. If you know Cachao already and you don't have this CD then get it and let the master surprise you once again.

The musicians in these sessions are among the greatest legends of Cuban music. First and foremost for me is Guillermo Barreto's timbale playing so clean and yet with such carrying power. His playing here is so refined and influential that his solo on "Malanga Amarilla" is like a school book for every serious timbale player.

Other stars include legendary conga player Tata Guines; "Nino" Rivera on tres; Hernan "el Negro" Vivar, trumpet; Generoso "el Tojo" Jimenez, trombone; Orestes Lopez, piano and Richard Egues, flute among others.
