Carlos Cascante Y Su Tumbao
Recuerdos
CD (Tumbao.us 2005-022), Released 2005;
Editor's Pick:
The album opens with a Cuban timba sabor, with Cascante singing
about Havana. He's actually from Costa Rica, and the band's from all
over, recorded in Seattle. It sure feels good though; with Julio
Jauregue on piano, and a pile of good soloists. The swing is there,
and traditional tunes — Bilongo, Obsesion — work over the modern
sound of an electric bass and Jauregue's piano eruptions, lower
register clusters that sound vaguely like thunder in the distance.
When he solos, harmony gets played with; Jauregue knows his way
around a bunch of modern jazz and latin harmonic languages. Ray Vega
and Joe Santiago show up on a few tunes.
Highly Recommended. (Peter Watrous, 2005-11-18)
