Ray Barretto & His Orch - El Bantu Mr Blah Blah
Review by Jos Molegraaf
El Bantu Mr Blah Blah is an album that showcases Ray Barretto's immense talent as a bandleader and percussionist. The album features a perfect blend of Latin jazz, funk, and soul, making it an instant classic.
The opening track "El Bantu" sets the tone for the entire album with its infectious rhythm and catchy melody. The album also features standout tracks such as "Abidjan" and "Acid", which showcase Barretto's incredible skill on the congas.
The album is a testament to Barretto's ability to fuse different styles of music seamlessly. His orchestra is tight and cohesive, and each musician shines in their respective solos. The album is a perfect representation of the New York Latin music scene in the 1970s.
