Bugalú para el siglo XXI - Bugalú for the 21st Century
Lookie Lookie revives bugalú: great 1960's Latin songs by Richie Ray, Joe Cuba, George Guzman, Pete Rodriquez, Eddie Palmieri, Jimi Hendrix. Bugalú pollinates mambo with elements of soul and American pop; with strong soloists and deep, complex grooves, Lookie brings an element of jazz exploration to the mix.
Four percussionists, three horns and a bass, with everybody singing, means waves of rhythm and melody.
And remember, you don't need to know the first thing about Latin dancing to shake your booty to Lookie Lookie. But if you are an expert, that'll work too. And it ain't no crime just to listen: with eight fine musicians going at it, there is plenty for the ears to enjoy....
