Mon Rivera skipping. You know, this has been released on CD at least a couple times. I know you love your vinyl and all, but maybe CD would be a better choice in this case.

He's actually playing some Latin Brothers (desde Colombia). Isn't that nice and ecumenical?

Incidentally, I know my new display name is not clever, but I could not get the idea out of my head, so I will keep it for a bit then kill it.

This list seems to lean too heavily on the fact that these albums sold a lot. Most of this stuff is not all that good, imo. The Guatemalan alternative thing looks intriguing, but I dunno.

Those About.com lists are always predictable that way. Just haven't found anything else online that looks of interest.

I really think Tito Rodriguez was cooler than Tito Puente.

Great band leader and great (truly top notch) singer.

Did Rodriguez continue to play percussion over the years while singing and as a bandleader, or did he hire others?
Those 2 Titos were certainly rivals.
