Day 5: Sabu - Palo Congo (1957)


This album was my first foray into the world of Latin Jazz. I enjoyed it but some songs seemed a bit overly long. Listening to it I felt as though I was in Havana watching a jazz band performing on the streets surrounded by a crowd. Several songs were upbeat and I enjoyed them the most, whereas 'Simba', the African track, I didn't care for that much. 4/5.

Tracks I enjoyed the most: El Cumbanchero, Choferito-Plena & Tribilin Cantore.
