Tino Puente Orchestra - Night Beat

NEW VINYL LP ON MUSIC ON VINYL 2014.

180 GRAM VINYL.

"El Rey de los Timbales" Tito Puente has been hitting drums, the ivories and timbales since the late forties and in the process has worked together with greats such as Mongo Santamaria, Willie Bobo and Ray Baretto.  His stage performances are the stuff of legends, as well as his recording output: in total he released over 100 (!) albums during his five-decade spanning career.  Night Beat (1957) is one of the best of his earlier period, presenting Tito as big-band leader, driving the jazzy, latin-tinged performances of his band fellows forward with his immaculate sense of timing, swing and energy. Essential album of the undisputed "King Of The Mambo". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tito_Puente
