Chano Pozo & Arsenio Rodriguez
with Machito and his Orchestra
Legendary Sessions, Tumbao 1992

The movie Chico y Rita is not about Chano Pozo, it’s ’bout Bebo Valdés, what happens is that there is a part where tells Chano’s death.
This kind of mistakes happens when just copy from another blogs…

Chano Pozo, Arsenio Rodríguez, Machito, Lili Martinez Chapottín, Marcelino Rodriguez, Tito Rodríguez … is part of the constellation that can be heard on this CD label Tumbao. These characters represent the prehistory of the music we danced since the seventies, when we come to the great feast of the sauce. The sound and music took two strands, one in New York and one in Havana, the island was cut, the big apple of youth expanded and mounted newyorrican saoco tremendous inspiration from Arsenio Rodriguez, in fact, much of the years sixties and seventies, in the sauce, are based on sound and approach to the music of Arsenio. (See Larry Harlow ) .
What Chano is something else, not only was the inspiration of Latin Jazz, created at the time of Palladium with Bauza and Gillespie, but he was leader in that geography and santero his death he was mythologized as pure legend Caribbean thing. Habanero born in times of Machado, danced and played the skins like nobody, Mario Bauza recruits him for immortality led to New York in 46, when he starts to play in the Machito Orchestra, where the singer is Miguelito Valdés. In 47 sets up his own combo of tresista Arsenio Marcelino Guerra and Panchito RISET more as a singer (in this CD there are two issues at this time).
In addition, the compact four-piece brings with Machito’s orchestra and Afrocuban with Pozo, Arsenio again in three and a boy named Tito Rodriguez Puerto Rico, where we witness the great singer has not had the elegance of crooner enshrine it as Latin the finest of the singers of the Caribbean.

Was the first conga player Chano bebop, 47 recorded their classics with Gillespie Manteca and Tin Tin Deo. That year at Carnegie Hall, Dizzy rides his Afro Cuban Suite in a concert that would go down in history, all thanks to Bauza Chano and prodigy. But the journey was too short Chano Pozo, a year later, a little over fifty years, died dead in a street in Harlem. Only two years were enough for so much.
But there is more to this album and the title role falls on the figure of the blind man great Arsenio Rodriguez, Matanzas, born in the year 11, to arrive at Havana on 30. The disc comes with six tracks recorded in 1948 in Havana, Lili Martinez on piano, Rene Scull on vocals and a boy named Felix Chapottín on trumpet, sweet and pure wire (three Rodriguez) composer There’s fire in 23.
When Arsenio leaving Cuba for good in 1953 Chapottín be responsible for this band, which was understood to mark the definitive sound that is imposed three and four decades later in Afro-Caribbean music. Delight in big with songs like Why you suffer, I do not cheat the girls or shark is here, of which there have been many versions later, and Lili killing the keys Chapottín, blowing a trumpet desperate, and the voice of René Scull forgotten.
