专辑简介

by Tony Wilds

Latin Soul is a re-release of Mercury recordings, although it is doubtful all were released, at least not on LP. The most significant tracks, "Siboney," "Jungle Drums," and "Say 'Si Si'," are readily available on Viva Cugat! in Mercury's Perfect Presence Sound Series. "Always in My Heart" is from The Best of Cugat in the same series. The nicely swinging slow bossa "Dust on the Moon" is yet another welcome Lecuona cover, but the rest is mostly non-essential easy listening, probably from the cutting-room floor. And with only ten tracks, this Pickwick product is much like releases on Mercury's own budget label, Wing.
