Review:
“Percussionist Ray Barretto has long been a legend in both the jazz and salsa communities, performing and recording with Tito Puente, Oliver Nelson, and Herbie Mann. THE OTHER ROAD, originally released in 1973, highlights the jazz side of Barretto’s musical personality while still maintaining roots in Afro-Cuban and Latin sounds. A set of originals, save for a cover of the Thelonious Monk classic “’Round (About) Midnight,” ROAD features smooth, classy ensemble playing and inspired soloing from the likes of Art Webb, Manny Duran (who also contributed arrangements), and Roberto Rodriguez. Barretto gives the Monk tune a bolero rhythm, putting an unexpected Latin spin on a well-known ballad.”
