Michael Romanowski at Coast Mastering and Jeff Powell at Take Out Vinyl mastered it for vinyl, and the artist's own store describes it as a premium audiophile pressing.

The cover painting is by Olivia Wise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy Latin Heart is Roger Glenn's first album as a leader since Reachin', his Mizell Brothers-produced record for Fantasy. Glenn composed and arranged all eight pieces and plays vibraphone, flute, alto saxophone and marimba, and sings. He produced the album with guitarist Ray Obiedo, who also played on Reachin', and Obiedo recorded and mixed it at Werewolf Recording in Oakland, California. The band is David K. Mathews on piano, David Belove on bass, Paul Van Wageningen on drums and Derek Rolando on congas, with John Santos and Michael Spiro adding vocals and percussion. Mathews contributed additional arrangements on \"Energizer,\" \"Congo Square\" and \"Samba De Carnaval,\" and Obiedo on \"Angola.\" After its release the album spent 26 weeks on the JazzWeek jazz chart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe program draws on Glenn's own history. He is the son of trombonist and vibraphonist Tyree Glenn, who played with Duke Ellington and the Louis Armstrong All-Stars. He made his recording debut with Mary Lou Williams in 1969, then worked with Mongo Santamaria, Dizzy Gillespie, Donald Byrd and Cal Tjader, playing on Tjader's Grammy-winning La Onda Va Bien. \"Cal's Guajira\" is a cha-cha-cha written as a tribute to Tjader. Glenn's own notes on \"Congo Square\" describe the New Orleans square where enslaved Africans were permitted to gather on Sundays to drum and dance, and the distributor's release notes tie \"Angola\" to Louisiana's Angola Prison. On \"Angola,\" Santos and Spiro play bata drums and sing in Yoruba.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTracklist\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLP 1, Side A\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZambo's Mambo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCal's Guajira\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLP 1, Side B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrother Marshall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Night of Love\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLP 2, Side C\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnergizer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCongo Square\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLP 2, Side D\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAngola\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSamba De Carnaval\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 843563197943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Patois\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.4.26\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vinyl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Patois Records","offers":[{"title":"NEW \/ NEW","offer_id":48226540290206,"sku":"EVP-0025F241-NEW-NEW-NONE0000","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0718\/8801\/1422\/files\/bf5b4d_d492d4004b5f451f9c89fde79ee6f87b_mv2.png?v=1791611563"},{"product_id":"nickodemus-gabriele-poso-la-conga-vieja-12-inch","title":"Nickodemus \u0026 Gabriele Poso - La Conga Vieja (Vinyl)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ciqIqKcZKhw?controls=0\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e12-Inch Vinyl Single\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWonderwheel Recordings' 12-inch of La Conga Vieja, catalog number WONDER295, carries four tracks.

Yglesias of Peace \u0026amp; Rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe song began on a trip to Puerto Rico, by the label's account. Nickodemus and Poso arrived for a show with no congas, and a promoter brought an old drum that had belonged to his father, old enough that nobody was sure it would play. The crowd started chanting \"La Conga Vieja\" and pushed Poso to try it, and the set ended on that groove. Nickodemus then invited poet Flaco Navaja and Cuban trumpeter Carlos Sarduy to turn the story into a dance track, one the label describes as being about resilience, migration and memory. Wonderwheel's notes place it in the line of \"Mi Swing Es Tropical,\" Nickodemus's earlier collaboration with Quantic and Tempo: a 4\/4 groove built on Afro-Latin percussion, salsa piano and horns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sleeve credits production to Nickodemus and Poso, vocals to Navaja and Poso, trumpet and piano to Sarduy, and percussion to Poso. Nickodemus arranged and mixed the title track, and Ron A. Shaffer mastered the record at Atlantic Studios West. \"Santa Conga Vieja\" is Poso's alone: he wrote and produced it and performed every instrument and vocal, and Francesco Bove mixed it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNickodemus is a New York DJ and producer who started DJing and throwing parties at 14, ran the Turntables on the Hudson parties from the early 2000s, and runs Wonderwheel as his own label.
