Astor Piazola & His Quintet - Take Me Dancing
Review by Gabriel Marcondes
Astor Piazzolla and his quintet have created a masterpiece with their album "Take Me Dancing." This album showcases the band's incredible talent and passion for the music they play. The album features a range of styles, from the traditional tango to more modern, jazz-influenced sounds.
The album's opening track, "La Yumba," sets the tone for the rest of the album, with its energetic rhythms and intricate melodies. Other standout tracks include "Adios Nonino," which showcases Piazzolla's virtuosic accordion playing, and "Libertango," a more modern take on the traditional tango.
Throughout the album, Piazzolla and his quintet display an incredible sense of musicality and chemistry. The musicians play off each other seamlessly, creating a sound that is both cohesive and dynamic.

Notes
- TICO High Fidelity (A Division of Roulette Records Inc.)
- Astor's name is misspelled on the cover as "Astor Piazola" and in all credits.
- Personnel corrected after interview with pianist (not percussionist) Carlos Rausch (not "Rauch"), a picture from the session, and on aural evidence. Pacheco probably played güiro and Rodríguez, bongos, as well as drums on two tracks. Tito Puente's and George Duvivier's presence has always been speculative.
- Astor's name is misspelled on the cover as "Astor Piazola".
