This 9 piece Latin-American collective bring that El Fuego jazz funk rock fire with some rhythms which are just a pure Latin soul-filled joy, a mean mean and at points almost doom rock head nod rhythm. You gotta check this, it's a monster.
Arriving from various points in Mexico, Panama, Cuba and Puerto Rico, this nine-man group led by Benny Velarde found each other and their music in San Francisco in the early 1970’s. They brought the music of their homes to the heavy sounds of San Francisco and merged the two, resulting in this soulful, joyful and unique 1973 recording. This Verve By Request title is pressed on 180-gram vinyl at Third Man in Detroit.
