Yeska - a wonderful fusion of the energies of salsa, Cuban and Ska music. This a great album! I love the timbales!

Wow, I thought this was some new (or new to me) Skatalites. I really like it. Based on this one song and the comments here I just ordered it.

Afro-Cuban jazz was one expansion, and here's another just by adding a ska beat—and messing a bit with the horn arrangement. All it takes is one visionary to ask, "Why don't we just add...?" I have no idea if it has any staying power, but this is great stuff. piano, nice. drums make the hips move, too |
