Mongo Santamaria • Workin On A Groovy Thing

The Mongo Santamaria/Columbia formula of Top 40 tunes retrofitted with an Afro-Cuban boogaloo beat gets another hyperactive workout here. The title tune, "Spinning Wheel," "Proud Mary," "My Cherie Amour" and "Get Back" are among the choices here, with Sonny Fortune occasionally scorching the earth on alto sax (and probably on flute), Joe Farrell turning up on tenor, and ever-versatile Bernard "Pretty" Purdie stoking the fires alongside Mongo.

La fórmula de Mongo Santamaria/Columbia de las 40 mejores melodías adaptada con un ritmo de boogaloo afrocubano tiene otro entrenamiento hiperactivo aquí. La canción principal, "Spinning Wheel", "Proud Mary", "My Cherie Amour" y "Get Back" son algunas de las opciones, con Sonny Fortune ocasionalmente quemando la tierra en saxo alto (y probablemente en flauta), Joe Farrell en tenor, y el siempre versátil Bernard "Pretty" Purdie avivando los fuegos junto a Mongo.
