Member CD Reviews Kevin G. (kkg-ct) from NEW FAIRFIELD, CT Reviewed on 2/1/2017... An extensive selection to get you cook'n. Cugat and Arnez may have gotten the attention but Machito has the groove.
CD ReviewsGood and proper B. London | Chicago | 08/07/2003 (4 out of 5 stars) "Like all of Briton's Proper labels 4 cd box sets this offers a helluva lot of music for a terrific price! And, as always, it's music recorded in the 40's and sound quality ranges all the way from murky to acceptable and some good. But, if you are a fan of Latin Jazz, or a Machito worshipper [how can ya love Latin Jazz and not worship Machito? He was the best!], you will want this box set. Just for historical reasons, it offers pretty much a conclusive assembally, and on the nightclub recordings from BirdLand in New York, the searing heat and powerful jazz makes it through even though the one mike recordings from the radio are frustrating."
