As 2023 quickly comes to pass, London's premiere IN THE WOODS RECORDS has released a monumental Jazz/Salsa "BANGER" guaranteed to light up the ensuing days and nights. Recorded live in New York City on a single Soundfield microphone in the round, Maestro Tito Puente and his 24 piece orchestra burn over two sides of black lacquer like no other ensemble could! Featuring legendary horn virtuosos Bobby Porcelli, Tony Barrero, Mitch Frohman and Joe De Jesus, this historic and highly sought after session from the mid 1980's has finally received its proper release. Cut by Geoff Pesche at Abbey Road and pressed at the Vinyl Factory utilizing the famous EMI 1400's (45 rpm), this is an audiophile's dream and set to stun! The imaginative cover art is bold and beautiful, inspired by distressed Japanese motivic work; the inner sleeve chronicles the sessions play by play with astute detail. Highly recommended for all passionate music enthusiasts, this is pure, unabashed sonic mana. T FOR TITO!! MOY CALIENTE!!
