Album Notes

Backed by a percussion driven latin rhythm section, the Hornheads add fiery ensemble work and burnin’ solos to this Cuban jazz project. It’s a great high energy CD for party music or listening. This CD was originally produced for a large retail chain but is no longer sold in the stores. Fortunately, we are able to make it available here.

This is the first time that I heard latin music played with a feeling that only you can develop hearing latin music for a long time. Congratulations!! BTW: **** An additional STAR for the trombone ****
