Mongo Santamaria

I just got 5 LPs of his and I am completely in love with the Afro/Latin/60s Soul vibe. If anyone help me out with other artists along these lines, it would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.

might as well start with Joe Bataan, and go from there.

bah. enough of this snobbish -use the SEARCH- posts ..that's ........

gawd...c'mon after all dude didn't ask how to convert WMA to mp3 ...

for threads like these, ther should be room for 6 or 7 serious replies on soultrut

instead here it comes a fella askin help on the latin bit and he 's slammed with the "USE-SEARCH-BUTTON" end-of-the-story answer.



SOULSTRUT: few yeards ago this board was SERIOUSLY more music oriented than today

Nowadays, youngsters and oldsters changed direction : it's becoming a rule that all NFL or Sneakers threads go :5pager: all the time

and finally, before bataan I would go for Pucho or Tjader....

Well i had obviously already searched the forums for mongo all the way out to the last year, and there is little to nothing about him other than weekend finds/whats on my platter. I had never even ventured into the reviews section short of the first page. Thanks for bringing light to the situation.

Mongo is great, especially late 60's early 70's records...
If you like Mongo's music check frst all Willie Bobo (most similar I think)
then Ray Barretto & Candido and then go to explore everything with word
"boogaloo" in title of song or album ,)
