Album Description
The classic Tico 78 RPM recordings of Tito Puente and his Orchestra and Quartet (1949-1955) are remastered and carefully assembled by Joe Conzo (a Puente confidant and historian). Nobody had recorded so many singles at that time. Yet many of these recordings have never been available on CD until now. These recordings showcase the true genius of Tito Puente, documenting his transition from conjunto bandleader to big band arranger, composer, conductor and creator of a sound that became popular throughout the world. The songs included in this two-CD/40-track release package will set your dancing feet on fire. Among the many gems here are Tito's selfpenned 'Mambo Macoco,' 'Mambolero,' featuring Vicentico Vald,s on vocals, the Latin jazz track 'Esy' and 'Mambo Gallego' (heard on the film The Mambo Kings.) This one is for historians, collectors and listeners of incredible dance music.

Summary: Great, neglected era for Tito 2008-11-13
Comment: This collection isn't for beginners but if you're a Puente fan, you'll love this. The discs are much jazzier than I would have thought and there are lots of solos for timbales and piano. I think the sound "restoration" is a bit aggressive but it's not horrid and it's much better than on other available compilations. Let's face it- these recordings weren't meant for the ages. They were for dancing and for the moment. We're lucky to have what we have. Great vintage graphics. I'm ordering volume two after hearing this.

Summary: The essence of Tito. My feet just want to dance! 2008-09-24
Comment: Holy Smokes! I haven't heard some of these songs since I was a kid in the streets of New York during the early and mid 1950's. These are the recordings that made Tito Puente a household name all over the world. He was the real "Mambo King". Nice liner notes also tell of his life and the recordings. His band was amazing and I'd forgotten how good these were. My feet just want to dance..or move. If you love the old Cuban/Latin sound of Mambo, you'll love this. Great for your next party!
