The download issues that are being experienced, I suspect are due to regional restrictions, in which case they can be solved by using Opera browser with VPN or Tor browser. Also using JDownloader makes downloading easier. I have downloaded files using JDownloader, in several browsers and even on mobile and I have no problems in this regard. Anyway I will see how it can be solved.

Lo inconvenientes en las descargas que se están experimentando, sospecho que son debido a restricciones regionales, en tal caso se solucionan con navegador Opera con VPN o navegador Tor. También el uso JDownloader facilita la descarga. He descargado los archivos mediante JDownloader, en varios navegadores e incluso en el móvil y no tengo problemas al respecto. De todos modos veré como puede solucionarse.

Yusef Lateef • The Gentle Giant
William Emanuel Huddleston, (n. Chattanooga, 9 de octubre de 1920 ; m.
Sutesbury (Massachusetts), 23 de diciembre de 2013), mejor conocido como
Yusef Lateef, fue un músico estadounidense que tocaba la flauta, el
oboe y el saxo tenor, encuadrado habitualmente como músico de jazz,
aunque su ámbito estilístico era el de la vanguardia musical en general:
hard bop, new age, músicas del mundo, etc.
Lateef creció en Detroit y empezó tocando el saxo tenor a los 17 años.
Trabajó con Lucky Millinder (1946), Hot Lips Page, Roy Eldridge y con la
big band de Dizzy Gillespie (1949-50). Durante los años cincuenta se
inició en el estudio de la flauta en la Wayne State University.
Comenzó a grabar como líder en 1955 para el sello Savoy y más tarde para
Riverside y Prestige. En 1959, se trasladó a Nueva York, cuando ya
tenía una sólida reputación por su versatilidad y su tendencia a
utilizar instrumentos creados por él.
En 1960, tocó con Charles Mingus, acompañó a Donald Byrd y trabajó con el Cannonball Adderley Sextet (1962-1964).
Con Impulse! (1963-1966) grabó algunos de sus mejores trabajos, como también lo fueron los grabados para Atlantic (1967-76).
En los años ochenta se dedicó a la enseñanza en Nigeria y su música
prestó atención al new age, ampliando sus intereses en los noventa y
llegando a grabar improvisación pura con músicos como Ricky Ford, Archie
Shepp y Von Freeman. [WIKI]
Yusef Abdul Lateef (born William
Emanuel Huddleston; October 9, 1920 – December 23, 2013) was an American jazz
multi-instrumentalist, composer and prominent figure among the Ahmadiyya
Community in America, in 1950.
Although Lateef's main instruments
were the tenor saxophone and flute, he also played oboe and bassoon, both rare
in jazz, and also used a number of non-western instruments such as the bamboo
flute, shanai, shofar, xun, arghul and koto. He is known for having been an
innovator in the blending of jazz with "Eastern" music. Peter
Keepnews, in his New York Times obituary of Lateef, wrote that the musician
"played world music before world music had a name."[2]
Lateef wrote and published a
number of books including two novellas entitled A Night in the Garden of Love
and Another Avenue, the short story collections Spheres and Rain Shapes, also
his autobiography, The Gentle Giant, written in collaboration with Herb
Boyd.[3] Along with his record label YAL Records, Lateef owned Fana Music, a
music publishing company. Lateef published his own work through Fana, which
includes Yusef Lateef's Flute Book of the Blues and many of his own orchestral
compositions.
