Saoco! Masters of Afro-Cuban Jazz


Anyone with even a passing knowledge of Afro-Cuban Jazz should be able to recognize a few names from the track and artist list. There's quite a few heavy hitters on this one. The music is from 1958 - 1973, and strangely enough on the Rhino label. This one probably isn't the best Afro-Cuban Compilation I've heard, but it's far from total crap. With a song like, "Hot Pants Road" it can't be all bad.
