This review is from: Fiesta Picante: The Latin Jazz Party Collection (2 CD Set) (Audio CD)

This collection contains many songs, showing the variety of latin jazz. Some have become hits, e.g., Oye Como Va, for Santana, as done by Tito Puente, gives a different, yet lively version; Watermelon Man, a hit for Herbie Hancock, is also presented in a nice version. A mix of live and studio tracks make this a swinging collection for dancing (if you've got the moves) or just listening.
VIVA LA FIESTA!
