Latin Reflections
is mostly yet another remake of
Cugat's
hits from the era before LPs.
MusicO
is budget version of
Musicor,
a fine label with serious Latin credentials, such as some albums produced by
Al Santiago.
The
Musicor
sound of
Cugat
is deeper and much more intimate, with guitar, flute, piano, marimba and horns ranging from soft solos to dubious,
Herb Alpert
-esque ensemble work. This works fairly well in
"Temptation,"
an exotic number which makes one wish
"Nightingale"
and
"Taboo"
were included too. This stint probably falls between his
Mercury
Decca
periods. It has the material and guts of the
recordings but with the mod, brassy arrangements of the
period. In fact the sound is as close to
as other work by
Cugat.
Whether Latin or "Mexicali brass," it is at least interesting easy listening, mercifully without strings. ~ Tony Wilds
