Len Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 not for me Latin'popcorn and R&b hate this sort record 'old fashioned 60's stompers and the midtempo stuff and bits of 70's will do me today and always :thumbsup: I'm the same, all except the Latin. I went through a stage where I couldn't listen to enough of it, but just one or two through a whole night does me now. I couldn't listen to it all night. All the best, Len Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Henrun Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 I suppose there are others but I would say 'Use It Before You Lose It' is a 'really' Latin record that has been played throughout the years (Post Stafford) Not sure if I'd descibeThe Majestics or David and Ruben as Latin though. 'Mongo Santamaria - We Got Latin Soul' is played, but it's not as well known on the whole. All the best, Len Marie Knight You lie so well is another well known soul tune that has a latin feel/arrangement without being a latin track.

Geeselad Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 both cracking tracks! here's an interesting one from a friend's recent sales list (gone now). definite audible warp on the record, but its an interesting piece of mellow/sweet soul from Panama. thats really nice, loads of grt music from panama, what its called? -please Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Andreas B Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 (edited) thats really nice, loads of grt music from panama, what its called? -please Los Mozambiques - I Like To Be With You the label is called Happy, hehe I showed it to another soul collector mate who told me it sounded like "wedding background music sh*t", to each their own but I think it has a really nice sweet soul edge to it.

Liljimmycrank Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Some that i've spun down at Driving Beat from time to time, although i have to bow significantly to Rich Buckley's Latin Soul collection, it's immense and boy can he weave it into a soul set! Joe Bataan - Gypsy woman Joe Bataan - Too much lovin (this builds into a great soul dancer) Ray Jay & The Eastsiders - Searching for love Ricardo Ray - Nitty gritty (without doubt the epitome of 'latin northern', and cheap as chips) Ray Rodriguez - Delusion (always played this off the LP, which is quite hard to source, but i'm after the oh so ellusive 7" if anyone has one?? Contrary to popular belief it IS on a 45!!) Hector Rivera - Do it to me Tony Middleton - Spanish maiden (mentioned already, but what a tune!!)

Joe Bataan - Gypsy woman Joe Bataan - Too much lovin (this builds into a great soul dancer) some great picks there mate. I'll be spinning a few of the above in mucho latin sets at different strokes and the rugby allnighter in November along with a great, exclusive, latin flavoured track by Tony Galla called 'Rescue me'. A blatant plug i know but if you wanna here some of this out in the near future you know where to head for.

Henrun Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 (edited) My favourite Mongo Santamaria tune Get the Money And one from his son (?) Monguito Santamaria Hey Sister! This is an absolute belter. It's got it all. Edited October 19, 2012 by henrun Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 How about this monster; That's a great tune. I always liked Sunny and the Sunliners version of I'm No Stranger. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

'Mongo Santamaria - We Got Latin Soul' is played, but it's not as well known on the whole. All the best, Len It's about opinions, and admittedly Bobby Valentin fits more obviously into the Latin genre than The Majestics, but for me the vocal delivery and backbeat of "....It Hurts Me" are pure latin in influence and you won't hear horns played like that on anything outside of hispanic music. Not to mention the hand clapping. If you listen to George Guzman - Misery on Fania it has a very similar salsa type back beat, if different tempo. Eddie Davis recruited artists from the Chicano community for his family of labels in LA. The Majestics song is another example of that "Eastside" sound he developed to appeal to a wider market...I guess the string section makes a difference to the overall feel in this case. You also have to allow for regional differences, Fania being New York based, like the different sound compared with the San Antonio, Texas soul scene. Despite differences if you listen to the horn section of the Sunliners Band for example it's never going to be anything other than hispanic musicians but their music sounds different to Fania material. Having said the above, if I was to attend a purely Latin event I probably wouldn't expect to hear The Majestics! Just my opinion and I certainly don't want to impose.......it's all down to where you want to draw the line with these genre things. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dean Rudland Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 How about this monster; and even better; Joe Bataan's I'm No Stranger was released as a 45 sometime in the 70s. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Liljimmycrank Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 and even better; That Ray Terrace is a sensation version of the Esquires. I heard it out at RSH warm up recently, loved it! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
