About this product
Proudly presenting our reissue of the sought-after 1978 album 'Ritmo y Sabor' from Cuban, master bongo player, Manteca. A deep, hypnotic, sonic excursion of Afro-Cuban/mambo rhythms to get lost within. Released in 1978, there are a number of different pressings of the album coming out on labels including GRC, Desca Records and Sound Triangle Records. Stripped-back and low-fi, this is a pulsating hit of instrumental Latin-jazz dance magic.Predominantly made up of just percussion and bass, the album comes courtesy of Carlos InchRicoInch Ramirez on bass, Carlos Patato on congas, timbales by Nelson Padron and Lazaro Pla aka Manteca as band leader. A Cuban legend, Manteca rose to fame playing with Ernesto Lecuona and the Cuban Boys. Although he featured on numerous recordings in his home of Cuba, only a handful exist of his as featured soloist or band leader. A whirlwind of percussive brilliance, 'Ritmo y Sabor' is brimming with energy regardless of the tempo of the track. An instantaneous ability to make you move, the grooves come alive with each new rhythm introduced. Take for instance, the track 'Afro Funky' that more than lives up to it's name. A breakbeat Latin-funk workout, with a mighty fine walking bass line that provides the basis for the drummers to vibe off. Elsewhere, 'Rumbon en Casa de Cando' is fast and furious perfect for the jazz dance specialist, whilst 'Sabor A Mantecado' keeps you on your toes with it's trance-like repetitive bassline and percussive interplay. 'Cosa de Manteca' is another heavy-Latin funk gem with a rough and raw feeling of relentless yet groove-driven percussion.A must-have Afro-Cuban, rhythmic funk triumph, that shows Manteca and his band in full flight Album Tracks 1. Rumbon en Casa de Cando 2. Afro Funky 3. Sabor a Mantecado 4. Abacua 5. Son Montuno 6. Cosas de Manteca 7. Gozando El Timbal

![Andreas Gilger - Dessiner Les Passions - COMPACT DISCS [CD]](https://pisces.bbystatic.com/image2/BestBuy_US/images/products/594f2e34-cbd6-41d8-b275-1413d89b2f6d.jpg;maxHeight=422;maxWidth=264?format=webp)
Passions, emotions, affects They are at the heart of the study of harpsichord music of the InchGrand SiècleInch in France, which produced composers such as Louis Couperin, Henry Du Mont and Jean-Henri D'Anglebert. In his first GENUIN solo , the young, first-rate harpsichordist Andreas Gilger relies on the perfect combination of a high-quality copy of a historical instrument and a room of ideal dimensions. In the Golden Hall of the Castle of Oettingen, he plays vibrant, passionate, surprising music of the 17th century, including a suite by Jean-Nicolas Geoffroy, which is now available on album for the first time. This is differentiated and rhetorically lucid harpsichord playing, which brings out the modernity and topicality of this music! Album Tracks 1. From Pièces de Clavecin, 1689 (Suite in G Major) 2. From Manuscrit Bauyn, S.D. (Suite in D minor) 3. From Livre Des Pièces de Clavessin de Tous Les Tons Naturels Et Transposéz, S.D. (Suite in F Major) 4. From Les Pièces de Clavessin, 1670 (Suite in a Minor) 5. From Manuscrit Bauyn, S.D. (Suite in C Major)

Very few solo recordings exist of the legendary Cuban percussionist Lazaro Pl+í, better known simply as Manteca; who rose to fame in the nightclubs of Havana in the 1940's and 50's. Manteca often became the high point of many a nightclub appearance - when he would emerge from the back of the bandstand to mesmerize the audience with his explosive conga playing. The rare early 1960's sessions presented here faithfully capturing Manteca leading a small but explosive Afro-Cuban combo, is an exemplary representation of the master percussionist. All selections newly remastered. Album Tracks 1. Rumbon en Casa de Cando 2. Afro Funky 3. Sabor a Mantecado 4. Abacua 5. Son Montuno 6. Cosas de Manteca 7. Gozando El Timbal
