Review: The indestructible Ray Barretto demonstrated superb skills on this record back in 1973. His band were at the forefront of the new Afro-Cuban musical movement that was emerging and became known as salsa. His composer skills were well known after he wrote 'Cocinando' and his band were also much loved in the live area though Johnny Rodriguez on bongo and cencerro, bassist Dave Perez, pianist Louis Cruz, along with trumpeter Rene Lopez and vocalist Adalberto Santiago all left him soon after. HIs Indestructible album is his most remarkable, with a constant sense of flow to the rhythms from front to back.

Pastime Paradise (reissue)
Cat: MK 65004. Rel: 27 Mar 24
 
Jazz
Pastime Paradise
La Cuna
Mambotango
Review: Stevie Wonder’s ‘Pastime Paradise’ has thus far been less recognised as an original soul wonderwork, and more so as a sample by American rapper Coolio on the derivative ‘Gangster’s Paradise’. Though still having been covered by many artists over the years, Major Keys records highlights this enduring 1981 cover of Wonder’s ‘Paradise’ by Latin percussionist Ray Barretto as among their favourites, if not their absolute favourite. Now the label reissue the gem, flaunting its up-to-date, nigh timeless feel; it’s the opposite of a miracle that this has never before been released on a 12” single record, despite the fact that it is a favourite on the floors of jazz and soul rooms the world over. It also flips it with Barretto’s own 'La Cuna' and ‘Mambotango’, taken from the same 1981 LP.
