Putumayo World Music Releases “Latin Jazz” on June 26, 2007
Tagged: Cuba, CubanPosted on: June 27th, 2007“Putumayo World Music continues its exploration into the sounds of the Latin diaspora by releasing its first jazz-focused collection. One of the most familiar jazz genres, Latin jazz has achieved global popularity since big bands in the 1940s and 50s started incorporating Afro-Cuban sounds into their arrangements. This mixture of Afro-Cuban rhythms and jazz stylings comes together on Latin Jazz, a lively collection of songs by masters of the genre. Latin Jazz, which features legends Tito Puente, Ray Barretto, Eddie Palmieri and others, is scheduled for release on June 26, 2007.”
