This is definitely one of Tjader's hottest albums recorded during his "golden era" with the Fantasy Label. It features an all-star cast with Mongo Santamaria, Vince Guaraldi, Rolando Lozano, Eddie Cano, Jose"Chombo"Silva, Willie Bobo, Paul Horn, Al McKibbon, Victor Venegas, Tony Terran, Lonie Hewitt, Eddie Coleman, etc. Experience jazz favorites like "Night In Tunisia", "Cuban Fantasy","Mambo Terrifico","Key Largo","The Continental", etc. One of the Tjader/Fantasy afro-cuban jass timeless classics!

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply THE BEST latin Jazz!, September 13, 2003

This is undoubtedly a classic! The quintet that cannot be repeated -unfortunately- was at its best, with Mongo and Willie, probably the best combination in latin percussion,at the peak of their form. Any conga/timbales player's GOT TO HAVE this CD...the conga and timbal solos are unsurpassed. It is a "now" sound, recorded in the late fifties! - simply the quintessence of Latin Jazz -with capital letters.
