EDMUNDO ROSAND HIS ORCHESTRA
TONIGHT'S THE NIGHT - DECCA RARITIES |  |
Description:
That master of Latin rhythms, Edmundo Ros, is featured on this Vocalion release, which gathers together thirty one numbers he recorded for Decca between 1952 63, none of which have been previously issued on CD. Included here are rarities such as Desafinado and One Note Samba Edmundo's first ventures into the then new bossa nova rhythm and Monte Carlo cha cha included in recognition of the fact that for nine summer seasons Edmundo appeared there with his orchestra. Monte Carlo was also where Edmundo presented a copy of The Carnation Girl to Tina Onassis, wife of Aristotle Onassis. The track from which the CD takes its title – Tonight’s the Night – was regularly featured as a ‘playout’ item in broadcasts from Edmundo’s club. There is much, much more to enjoy on this delightful release, which is a fine tribute to the man who did so much to popularise Latin American music throughout the world. |
