Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Saoco is Sabroso!.......2002-11-23

Excellent compilation of the best Latin jazz has to offer, featuring giants such as Tito Puente, Willie Bobo, and Machito, as well as lesser known talents like Bobby Paunetto and Silvestre Mendez. The tunes are well balanced and extremely diverse, illustrating the wide spectrum of the Latin jazz genre.
There are more than a few rare gems and funky delights in this sparkling collection, so grab a copy the next time you feel like treating yourself to something special. Que viva la Musica!
