Al McKibbon • Tumbao para Los Congueros di Mi Vida

 

Review from JazzTimes (by Owen Cordle):
McKibbon's Latin recording career goes back to "Manteca" with Dizzy in 1948. He has also worked throughout the jazz and entertainment spectrum. This album finds him primarily in a supportive role, providing strong-toned, elastic Latin rhythms on "Off Minor", "Tin Tin Deo", "I Mean You", "Cubano Chant", et al. Reedmen Charles Owen and Justo Almario, pianist Phil Wright, and percussionists José "Papo" Rodríguez and Ramon Banda handle their duties with a pleasing sense of melody and a contagious sense of rhythm. A very enjoyable and well-balanced album.

La carrera discográfica latina de McKibbon se remonta a "Manteca" con Dizzy en 1948. También ha trabajado en todo el ámbito del jazz y el espectáculo. Este álbum lo encuentra principalmente en un papel de apoyo, proporcionando ritmos latinos de tonos fuertes y elásticos en "Off Minor", "Tin Tin Deo", "I Mean You", "Cubano Chant", et al. Los músicos de viento Charles Owen y Justo Almario, el pianista Phil Wright y los percusionistas José "Papo" Rodríguez y Ramón Banda manejan sus deberes con un agradable sentido de la melodía y un sentido del ritmo contagioso. Un álbum muy agradable y bien equilibrado.
