The Exciting Sounds of Tito Puente




I've been completely blown away with a bunch of video's from the show "SOUL" that was sent over by both Simon and Ish last week (Many humble thanks you's, the M'Boom is truly outstanding, and i'm hoping to post them next) I transfered the video to audio for my use in the car really, they came out sounding quiet good so i've uploaded them.
This is 8 minutes of the finest, powerhouse, ball-busting Latin jazz. It starts off with a introductory rhythmic rap by "brother man" Felipe Luciano, that leads into a mind blowing version of Para los Rumberos by Tito Puente Y Su Orquesta.
Recorded 15th November 1972.
