Joe Bataan
Gypsy Woman C/w So Fine
ONLY and we do mean only, can the Fania orchestra create this wall of blaring instrumentation! A piano intro, is blown away by trembling brass and the Fania favored Cowbells, rhythmically enhanced by frantic bongo work, a mighty piano break, answer and call male vocal backing, then the imagination of the great Joe Bataan is evident again, as break after with a different instrumental going solo, then THE END. All this energy, makes the lead-vocal almost a second thought - no studio party could ever match these freestyle 60s sessions when the whole family came to dinner! LATIN is huge in the Northern Clubs at the moment - and this one just spews out a good-time!
