The other day I remembered a classic Christmas party that me and my El Colectivo-roomies threw many years ago. It was a blast, a goddamn monster party we never will forget! We didn't have any Dj - this was the Stone Age - so I made a couple of mixtapes (cassettes) that worked really well. And one of them, the Latin cassette, was THE banger! ...which then, 17 years later, inspired me to put together un Especial de Latin en dos partes covering various latin essentials, according to me (nothing new for all you Latin music heads out there, but hell, estos son la esencia hermano!). So here is chapter one with some hot cookin' descargas, guaguancos, salsas, boogaloos, rumbas, jazzy moods y todo ese maldito sabor! In fact, some of them right on from that old mixtape...Art Blakey - Cubano Chant
Joe Cuba - El Pito
Jimmy Sabater - Yroco
Alegre All Stars - El Manisero
Frankie Nieves - Mondongo
Ocho - Guaguanco Margarito
Orquestra Esencia - Carnival
Los Mozambique - Descarga Mozambique
La Lupe - Fever
Nancy Ames - Carcara
Pete Rodriguez - I Like It Like That

Tjena kompis!
Vad är det där för tavla? Sjukt fin! Finns den att köpa någonstans?
Hola Amigo!
Vet faktiskt inte vad det är för tavla...hittade den på nätet nånstans, tyvärr glömt var. Sorry. Hoppas du gillar musiken i alla fall.
Gozálo!
A!A!
Lyssna även på Albitas version av Manisero med lite skönt samtal i början och den briljanta repliken " soy de la literatura esencialmente costumbrista".
