Latin Soul, New York Barrio Grooves 1966-1972

Various Artists

'Essential Latin Soul from the 60's and 70's that still shakes the dance-floors today!' Lubi Jovanovi
Straight No Chaser magazine

Label - Nascente
Compiled by James Maycock


'LATIN SOUL captures the extraordinary burst of musical colour that exploded in the late 1960's and early '70's when black R&B boogaloo'ed with brown rhythms, when the hip sounds of Afro-Harlem mingled with those of Spanish Harlem. English lyrics, hot horn hits, raw Latin percussion and soul vocals all combined to create a disgracefully impure but quite irresistible, ass-wiggling experience. In these fifteen cuts, LATIN SOUL covers the spectrum from the sweet sounds of Joe Bataan and the TNT Boys to the rawer, sock-boogaloo style of Joey Pastrana and Ray Barretto.

"NEVER LEARNED TO DANCE?" C'mon baby, it's time to dig some LATIN SOUL!'
