Description
Groundbreaking Anthology of Afro-Cuban Music, Salsa De La BahÃa,
A Two-CD Companion Piece to the Upcoming Documentary Film The Last Mambo, Featuring Latin Music Giants Orestes Vilató, John Santos, Jesus Diaz, John Calloway, and Benny Velarde. Rather than dwelling on the reasons why the San Francisco Bay Area's longtime role as a creative hothouse for Latin jazz and salsa has been overlooked and undervalued for half a century, trombonist/arranger Wayne Wallace and filmmaker Rita Hargraves decided to let the music speak for itself. Scheduled for release on Wallace's Patois label on August 13, Salsa De La BahÃÂa is a two-CD companion piece to Hargraves' celebratory documentary The Last Mambo, which traces the evolution of the Bay Area's Latin music scene from Cal Tjader, Benny Velarde, and the Escovedo Brothers to present day masters such as John Santos, Jesus Diaz, and Anthony Blea.
