Get your Afrique on freak!

"Serendipity! I thought this was Derek Smith British Jazz pianist! And I like the word "montuno" as it was the bridge section of mambo music developed by the great Lopez brothers in Cuba [Cachao the bassist and Israel the pianist]. Pan can mean "bread" or it can mean universal. My happy surprise is that this Derek Smith is a young, hip, multi-talented writer and musician in California. Usinf steel pans the equisite jazz players take you on a musical, hip shakin' tour from de reagge mahn in Jamaica my bro round bout Mozambique with stops in Cal Tjader mambo land of San Francisco bay people. World class world music keep me smilin' bro."
