Al Santiago Presents Tambo

From the Label Many Nuyoricans have embraced not only the music of their ancestral birthplace (Puerto Rico) but the historical richness of Cuba as well. Timbalero Johnny Almendra has gone on to become one of the leading bandleaders in Latin music today, fronting the exceptional Charanga group Los Jovenes del Barrio. Louie Bauzo has also gone on to a stunning career as bongosero/ composer/ arranger and all-around authority on "la musica latina". Nearly a quarter century later, Johnny and Louie co-lead an orchestra located in Spanish Harlem, known for its exceptional talent and drive. Finally, this project was produced by Al Santiago, Jr. who is roundly recognized as perhaps the most important producer in the history of Latin music in North America. Like John Hammond in the jazz world any record produced by Al Santiago has earned a unique place in the artistic firmament. This album now fetches a small fortune in the highly competitive circle of record collectors, who have long been aware of its excellence.
