- • Latin music legends Candido Camera and Graciela are two of the last survivors of the Cubop movement of the late '40's, which fused Cuban
rhythms with big-band Jazz.
- • Together these masters of the art bring a unique style and easy
camaraderie to this new recording, highlighted by Graciela's call-andresponse
interplay with the band and Candido's subtle wizardry on the
conga drums. What you have is inolvidable, unforgettable.
- • Long before Celia Cruz was anointed the Queen of Salsa, Graciela was the First Lady of Latin Jazz. She is best-known as the lead vocalist for
Machito and his Afro-Cuban Jazz Orchestra from 1943 through the 70s.
Candido has collaborated with almost all of the great jazz masters,
including Clark Terry, Dinah Washington, Charlie Parker. Duke Ellington.
Lionel Hampton. Mongo Santamaria, Buddy Rich, Dizzy Gillespie, and Tito Puente.
