Title Note

This is a hybrid Super Audio CD playable on both regular and Super Audio CD players.

Personnel: Mongo Santamaria (congas); Eddie Rodriguez (vocals, percussion); Craig Rivers (soprano & tenor saxophones); Jimmy Cozier (alto saxophone); Eddie Allen (trumpet); Dave Valentin, Hubert Laws (flute); Daria Eskenazi (piano); Guillermo Edghill (bass); Johnny Andreu Almendra (timbales); Jerome Goldschmidt (percussion).

Recorded at BMG Studio A, New York, New York on March 30 & 31, 1993. Includes liner notes by Steve Sacks.

Mango Santamaria utilizes a colorful cast of musicians on this CD. Flutists Hubert Laws and Dave Valentin are featured on two songs apiece (although unfortunately not together) and the nonet has trumpeter Eddie Allen, altoist Jimmy Cozier, and Craig Rivers on tenor and soprano, along with three percussionists. There are a lot of percussion features including the closing nine-and-a-half minute "La Mogolla," making this an excellent if not quite essential recording. ~ Scott Yanow
