Long gone but not forgotten, born Ignacio Arsenio Travieso Scull
in 1911. Known as Arsenio Rodriguez and died in 1970. We still
love his work hence the fact he is king of downloads with his no.1
album ‘Primitivo’ at this page. This is a record I recently purchased
for quite a price. Better get it now you lucky bastards..

Al geruime tijd van de aardbol maar nog lang niet vergeten, geboren
als Ignacio Arsenio Travieso Scull in 1911. Wij, liefhebbers van zijn
heerlijk werk, draaien hem nog steeds met grote regelmaat getuige zijn

Arsenio Rodriguez overleed in 1970 reeds.Deze schijf vinyl kocht ik onlangs

it a try and get it now..

Eddie Palmieri y su Conjunto ‘la Perfecta’ El Molestoso
Alegre Records 1963

Eddie Palmieri, front

This is the second lp by latin pianist Eddie Palmieri and his group
‘La Perfecta’. They were the originators of a sound called ‘trombanga’,
introducing two trombones and a flute instead of trumpets. This contributed
a lot to their early sixties succes in the New York latin scene. Later it was
also used by artists such as Willie Colon and Manny Oquendo among others.
The vocals on this 1963 album are taken care of by Ismael Quintana. Enjoy..

tracks;

1   El molestoso
2   Asi es la humanidad
3   Lazaro y su microfono
4   Contento estoy
5   Sabroso guaguanco
6   Yo sin ti
7   Co un amor se borra otro amor
8   En cadenas
9   La gioconda
