These cats on fire. . .,
February 8, 2001 Al "popilius" (Lisle, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jam Miami: Celebration of Latin Jazz (Audio CD)
This album is something really special- these artists play together like they were brothers, and in a way, they are. They dedicate the music to Tito Puente (who was very ill at the time of the concert). They music is entirely soulful and heartfelt. Everyone plays "Tunisia," but this version is really something to behold. Chick's playing on Sandoval's "Mis Abuelos" is perfectly mathed with Sandoval's horn. Claudio Roditi explodes with vitality, Poncho Sanchez is ON. This concert album is recorded with studio quality. If you like any of these cats, this album is definite.

This review is from: Jam Miami: Celebration of Latin Jazz (Audio CD)
I bought this CD over three months ago and I have yet to get tired of listening to it. The gathering of such talent performing live on one CD is a real treat. Arturo Sandoval, Poncho Sanchez, Pete Escovedo, Chick Corea (which is rare to see him on latin Jazz album), Dave Valentin, Nestor Torres, Hilton Ruiz, and Jeff Ballard on drums (who is simply awesome). This CD packed with these notable musicians is really special. If you're into serious latin Jazz, then this is a must have.

Jam Miami Absolutely Amazing,

This review is from: Jam Miami: Celebration of Latin Jazz (Audio CD)
This cd is a must buy for all Latin Jazz fans. Arturo Sandoval's solo in "A Night In Tunisia" is awesome. All of the songs on this cd a very good. It is hard to find a cd with every song very good.
