Tico All-Stars Descargas At the Village Gate Live Vol 2 LP Eddie Palmieri Tito Puente Ray Barreto Cachao
Fantastic
A second volume in the series of thrilling Descargas at the Village Gate sessions offers 32 additional minutes of all-star jamming, with a roll call of New York's most important Latino musicians: Puente, Pacheco, Barretto, both Eddie and Charlie Palmieri, Joe Cuba, Jimmy Sabater, and Barry Rogers, plus a full dozen others. The first "song," the 12:30minute "Descargas de Cueros," Starts with Cachao and percussion then Tito takes off on timbales & it's a jam session. Side two. 19min Major & Minor offers solos from Eddie Palmeri - piano, Robert Porcelli, - soprano Tito Puente - Vibes, Jimmy Sabater - Timbales & conga man Barretto, and, eventually, nearly everyone else The sense of energy and communal joy is palpable throughout this recording and, though listening to it certainly isn't as much fun as being there, Descargas at the Village Gate, Vol. 2 is a showpiece of Latin music.
