Veteran percussionist Francisco Aguabella returns with a smoker of a Latin jazz-mambo release that very well may his best release to date. Each finely crafted tune, which includes some classic covers like “My Favorite Thing” (in which Aguabella plays the batá drum), “Fiesta Mojo” and “Autumn Leaves” smokes, but the centerpiece is the amazing version of “Agua Limpia Todo,” the Aguabella composition in which he wrote for Tito Puente in the ‘50s for Puente’s classic Dancemania album. It is spectacular.

If “Agua Linpia Todo” is the centerpiece, then “Tin Tin Deo,” the Aramo and Chano Pozo composition, is the icing on the cake. The percussive blow-out is remarkable, and Aguabella has never sounded better than right here.

Aguabella acknowledges his debt to Puente with his original composition entitled “Mambo For Puente,” a tune that has captured the Puente fire.
With this release Aguabella seems to defy the effects of time. He has indeed become one of our musical treasures.

Esto llega gracias al buen gusto del pana PABLOSALSA
