VA • Nu Yorica! Culture Clash In New York City Experiments In Latin Music 1970-77

 

Review from The Guardian (CD of the Week):
An inspired selection. Soul Jazz deserve credit for delving further into the murky background of popular dance and jazz music. If ever a CD was worth buying, this is it.

Review from Record Collector:
Some compilations are so influential and universally loved that they become classic albums in their own right. Just as Harry Smith cemented forever the underground sound of the US between the wars, so did the then young Soul Jazz imprint immortalise the Latin music emerging from 1970s New York with Nu Yorica! This anniversary reissue retains what was always a sensational collection of almighty Latin grooves. Make no mistake, this album is extraordinary. Infectious, revolutionary, inspirational and funkier than a mosquito's tweeter, Nu Yorica! fuses jazz, soul, funk and every kind of Latin music, all the while infusing it with the energy and freedom of the Big Apple.

Resena de The Guardian (CD de la Semana):
Una seleccion inspirada. Soul Jazz merece credito por profundizar en los oscuros antecedentes de la musica popular de baile y el jazz. Si algun dia vale la pena comprar un CD, este es el caso.

Resena de Record Collector:
Algunas compilaciones son tan influyentes y universalmente amadas que se convierten en albumes clasicos por derecho propio. Asi como Harry Smith cimento para siempre el sonido underground de los EE.UU. entre guerras, el entonces joven sello Soul Jazz inmortalizo la musica latina emergente del Nueva York de los anos 70 con Nu Yorica! Esta reedicion aniversario conserva lo que siempre fue una coleccion sensacional de poderosos grooves latinos. Sin lugar a dudas, este album es extraordinario. Infeccioso, revolucionario, inspirador y mas funky que nada, Nu Yorica! fusiona jazz, soul, funk y todo tipo de musica latina, impregnandola con la energia y la libertad de la Gran Manzana.
