New flamenco sketches
Jerry Gonzalez, outstanding trumpeter late of the Fort Apache Band and the excellent Latin jazz documentary "Calle 54," moves to Spain, becomes a sensation, decides to fuse jazz and flamenco music and yields "Los Piratas del Flamenco," which is a little bit "Sketches of Spain," a little bit Tito Puente, with snatches of Dizzy Gillespie and Machito and a whole lot of you’ve not heard anything quite like this before, at least not on a jazz CD. I like it.
