Eso es Latin Jazz… Man!

antonio (chocolaté) diaz mena – eso es latin jazz… man (audio fidelity lp 1963) album
It’s a latin jazz Tuesday… man. The only solo-album recorded by drummer Antonio (Chocolaté) Diaz Mena is a star-studded affair: Lalo Schifrin, Duke Pearson, Jerome Richardson, Clark Terry, Felipe Yanez, Johnny Coles and a host of others feature on twelve short and fiery tracks. A lot of these are covers – including the first version of “Take Five” I can listen to in years – and the style is a hybrid of big band jazz and a rootsy latin approach. I’ve just realised I’m beginning to sound like a review over at Dusty Groove; time to let the music do the talking.

very grateful for his generosity but to finish doing things right, would you please re-upload this album since missing the first two songs. thanks again. greetings. Anthony
Hi Antonio, you’re welcome. Which songs are you missing? My vinyl rip consists of a 89.6mb folder containing 12 songs.
Well, the downloaded file contains only 81.6 MB, thus missing the number 11 and 12. In addition to the 1 and 2 gave error. So I could only enjoy the 3 to 10 but do not worry should be a problem of my team and I am also older apprentice. Thanks anyway and congratulations for your blog. Greetings. Anthony
Antonio, I have just sent you the four tracks.
