Highlights of the show:

Latin Soul brought two tunes from Bobby Hutcherson’s album “Montara”. The perfect blend of vibes and Latin jazz for relax seeking show tonight.





“Montara” by Bobby Hutcherson was released by Blue Note in 1975. Right in the middle of his acclaimed career, this album is bringing his approach to the terrains of Latin jazz, as many great North American straight-ahead jazz musicians did. The renown vibraphone and marimba player put together an ensemble including Latin music heavy weights Willie Bobo and Bobby Matos at the percussion or Eddie Cano at the piano, among others, and "Montara" made it to the public. In the album you will find a superb rendition to Tito Puente´s classic "Oye como va". "Yuyo" a tune composed by Mr. Hutcherson himself is nice mambo jazz full of the overall vibes and marimba sounds being almost the most distinctive Latin jazz tune in the album. Other pieces such as the opening "Camel rise", "Montara" (composed by Bobby Hutcherson as well), or "La Malanga" add at great length on the cool melodies marked by the vibes and marimba solos lead by Mr. Hutcherson. This is an album to enjoy musical subtle textures and let away yourself be carried in them.
