The king of the Congas at his very best. Recorded in NYC at both Mastermind Studios and Nola Studios (1984-1985).

In addition, 'Cute' and 'Coimelon' are straight-ahead showcases for Ronnie Cuber (on soprano and baritone) and pianist Michel Camilo, while fluitst Artie Webb is heard in top form on 'Adios Pampa Mia' and Horace Silver's 'Nica's Dream.'
