Highlights of the show:

Here you may find commented two samples of great music among the other great songs of Latin Soul tonight.

Tito Puentes´ tune “Oye como va” is maybe one of the most well known Latin songs. Originally composed in 1963, it became a real hit with the later 1970 rock version by Carlos Santana. The live version presented tonight in Latin Soul filled the airwaves with the vivid, steady rhythm of this classic that at the very least will make your foot beat here and there. Tito Puente, one of the greatest of the Latin scene, once again heating up the North East Texas region from 88.9 KETR or in the web at ketr.org.

Pilar de la Hoz is a contemporary vocalist from Perú. Released in 2006, her second album 'Jazz con Sabor Peruano' is a perfect mixture of the Peruvian original musical style of “Peruvian vals” or “música criolla” with jazzy tunes and an overall powerful crystalline voice. 'My romance' is the most clear example as Ms. De la Hoz sings a classic Peruvian vals in English, adding to it the smooth touch of the best jazz female jazz singers. The song tonight presented, 'Campesina', is another sample of this jazz and Peruvian crossover with a leading guitar reminiscent of the best Grant Green. Along the album it is remarkable the exquisite use of the “cajón”, the traditional percussion instrument consisting of a simple wooden box. Stay tuned to Latin Soul, for more Pilar de la Hoz and other great artists to come soon to your airwaves or online at ketr.org.
