Spanish Harlem Orchestra
2006/09/03 Rhythm & Roots, RI

~From John Shelton Ivany's Top 21:

"
The Rhythm & Roots Festival is held every year. During the Labor day weekend more than 10,000 people come together to celebrate cajun. blues, zydeco, folk and many other styles of southern-born music. The fest is a culture immersion, with traditional dance, music, and food.

This last year, featured on the main stage, the Spanish Harlem Orchestra performed magnificently before thousands. What you will hear when you listen to this rare find is stage presence! This is a well-recorded live performance that takes you from your winter cottage to the red-hot warmth of a summer night. Under the direction of famed piano player Oscar Hernandez, they put on a stellar show.

Editor's Note: I know I must have heard this music in east Harlem in New York City where I went whenever I was down to lift me up."

SHO - The Best! - 5 stars - As any serious salsero/salsera knows, The Spanish Harlem Orchestra is the modern standard bearer of the great New York Salsa tradition, bringing us wonderful swinging dance music that is appreciated throughout the world. These tracks, recorded live at a 2006 concert do not disappoint. They will get you moving. So put on your dancing shoes and download!"
