Porfi Jimenez Y Orquesta - Africa A Gogo

Review by Mark Warren

Africa A Gogo by Porfi Jimenez Y Orquesta is a captivating album that showcases the musical talent of this renowned Latin American group. The album features a fusion of Afro-Latin rhythms and traditional African beats, creating a unique and dynamic sound that is both infectious and uplifting.

The album opens with the upbeat and energetic track "Africa A Gogo", which sets the tone for the rest of the album. The use of percussion instruments such as congas, bongos, and timbales, combined with the brass section, creates a vibrant and lively sound that will get listeners moving and grooving.

The album also features slower, more melodic tracks such as "Mambo Yoyo" and "Samba De Una Sola Nota" which allow the listener to appreciate the skillful instrumentation and arrangements of the music. The use of traditional African instruments such as the kora and djembe adds a unique flavor to the album that is not often heard in Latin American music.

Summary by Mark Warren

Africa A Gogo is a must-listen for anyone who enjoys Latin American music or world music in general. The album is a testament to the talent and creativity of Porfi Jimenez Y Orquesta, and is sure to leave listeners feeling uplifted and inspired.
