Sax wizard Bobby Martinez was born in Philadelphia in 1961 to Cuban émigré parents who exposed him to the music of their homeland which he readily absorbed. Bobby spent 3 years recording and touring with Gloria Estefan and the Miami Sound Machine which also led to gigs with KC & the Sunshine Band and Julio Iglesias. In 1998 Bobby finally had the time to make a solo album which reflected his love of Cuban music, jazz and salsa. The resulting album demonstrates why Bobby's sax playing is in such high demand and should be a reason to celebrate for Cuban jazz fans everywhere. All selections newly remastered.
