Arranger: Chico O’Farrill.

After not having led a recording session under his own name in 29 years, O’Farrill came from seemingly out of nowhere to lead a terrific Afro-Cuban big band date on this CD. O’Farrill claims that he turned down offers to lead standard seven or eight-piece salsa bands on records over the years, preferring to wait until a big band opportunity came along – and clearly, he was bursting with accumulated charts dating from the 1960s through the 1990s.

Not too much has changed since O’Farrill’s exciting string of albums for Clef in the 1950s; if anything, his arranging hand has become surer, more sophisticated, thoroughly in touch as ever with a wide variety of influences. Most striking of all is how O’Farrill was able to build a fire underneath the musicians in the band, which includes leaders in their own right like trombonist Robin Eubanks, conguero Jerry Gonzalez and drummer Steve Berrios, as well as Tito Puente’s tenor sax/flute player Mario Rivera and O’Farrill’s son Arturo Jr. on piano.
