Mario Ortiz Jr. All Star Band: Tributo 45 Aniversario
CD
(Sony B002KD8U48),
Released 2009;
Editor's Pick:
Okay, folks, here's a *killer* salsa release, with a soul, energy and sound that borrows heavily from the big band mambo era. Trumpeter Mario Ortiz Jr. here pays tribute to his father, the late bandleader and trumpeter Mario Ortiz. And what a tribute it is. If you're ready for a high-voltage interpretation of the *heavy* swing from that bygone era, get this puppy now. Joining Ortiz Jr. for the ride is, ...get ready: Gilberto Santa Rosa, Cheo Feliciano, Tito Allen, Richie Ray, Bobby Cruz, Roberto Roena, Adalberto Santiago, Elías Lopés, Primi Cruz, Anthony Cruz, Ismael Miranda, Papo Lucca, Tony Vega, Bobby Valentín, Ismael Rivera Jr., Pedro Brull and Andy Montañez. Some of the project's highlights, and there are many, are the amazing "Se Acabo El Bembe" as interpreted by Ismael Miranda, Adalberto Santiago's take on "Mambo Infierno," "Para Los Bravos" by Andy Montañez (wow!) and Gilberto Santa Rosa's totally cool groove on "Chinita." Listen, this is a historic recording, an eventual classic, and a Must-Have for any collector. Overflowing with swing and sabor. Can you handle it? A BIG DJ Alert and Very Highly Recommended.
