Ray Barretto & New World Spirit
One of the most relentlessly driving congueros in Latin jazz and salsa music, Ray Barretto’s riveting congas have peppered countless recordings throughout his long and varied career. But, in fronting the two-horn “New World Spirit” septet—his very own, high-octane Latin jazz ensemble—Barretto delivered some of his most dynamic, fun, and creative music on record. Concord Picante is happy to present two of Ray Barretto’s best—Ancestral Messages and Taboo—in this specially-priced 2-CD collection.
