Although it is nowhere to be stated on the outside of this 3-CD box set, this is actually the famed late '50s Cuban Jam Sessions, from the Panart studios, featuring the orchestras of Julio Gutierrez, Israel Cachao López, Niño Rivera, and José Fajardo. These stellar recordings have been available separately, on and off, for some time under their original Panart titles: Cuban Jam Session Vol. 1 (Julio Gutierrez and Niño Rivera), Cuban Jam Session Vol. 2 (Julio Gutierrez and Cachao), and Cuban Jam Session Vol. 3 (Fajardo). They are each absolute classics in their own right, and are still the reference point for all Afro-Cuban dance-jam records that followed. These legendary sessions are among a handful of Cuban recordings of that era to have paved the way for modern salsa and Latin jazz. Las Estrellas Areito, The Alegre All Stars, and the Fania All Stars all owe a huge debt to these three sessions. They sizzle and swing. With Peruchin on piano, Tatá Güines on congas, Guillermo Barreto on timbales, Richard Egües on flute, El Negro Vivar on flute, and many others.
A must-have.
Very Highly Recommended. (BP, 2008-04-06)
