Kenya (1957) - Machito

 Review do Bugio

I was complaining about Sabu two albums ago because of his crazy drums that didn't do it for me. Machito follow somewhat the same trend with one big difference: MACHITO IS FANTASTIC! The wind instruments were spot on and the drum weren't too loud. "Kenya" is now on my list of one of the best "Latino" albums... this is a proper afro-jazz with Latin soul. Loved it!

The song "Kenya" was my favourite and I felt like dancing listening to it; reminded Brazilian carnival of 1950s.
