As a percussionist I loved not only Tito's playing but he had a "hell of a percussion section" and he appeared to be generous with giving other guys a chance to shine...
My Jewish doctor had a playlist of Tito Puente playing in the delivery room during the birth of my daughter. Afterwards I said "Doc... awesome playlist, who the hell is it??? And now here I am loving his music. I have always been a huge big band fan so this only feels natural for me and this opened up a whole new world of fresh tunes for me to listen to and add to my vinyl collection. Because Tito on vinyl is BOMB!!!! My baby girl will certainly grow up knowing who he is....
Tito Puente the King ! Tito Puente music cha cha cha,mambo,Latin Jazz the Bible of Latin Music until his death it will take another 100 years for another master of this Music to come !
"Oh, I've been listening to him for years, and I think he's fabulous." Y'know, one day, Tito Puente will be dead, and you'll say, "Oh, I've been listening to him for years, and I think he's fabulous."
I can remember hearing his music in the house and was in awe when he came to the house to visit. My mom and him were good friends, she was one of his singers and dancers Mechita Verilla, she's even in his book.
En la época que se grabó las piezas durtaban entre dos y tres minutos, hoy en días esa descarga duraría mínimo 15 minutos, tremendo disco,..., gracias por compartirlo
Guaracha and salsa[edit] The timbales of Tito Puente on exhibit in the Musical Instruments Museum in Phoenix, AZ Salsa is another genre whose form derived from the Cuban\Puerto Rican melding of genre, especially Cuban dance music of the 1950s-but which in the 1960s-70s became an international genre, cultivated with special zeal and excellence in Puerto Rico, and by New York Puerto Ricans. Forms such as the Charanga was hugely popular to Puerto Ricans and Nuyoricans, indeed, rescued this music, which had been stagnating and isolated in Cuba itself in the 1960s, giving it new life, new social significance, and many new stylistic innovations. Salsais the name acquired by the modernized form of Cuban/Puerto Rican-style dance music that was cultivated and rearticulated from the latter 1960s by Puerto Ricans in New York and, subsequently, in Puerto Rico and elsewhere. While salsa soon became an international genre, thriving in Colombia, Venezuela, and elsewhere, New York and Puerto Rico have remained its epicenters. Particularly prominent in the island itself were El Gran Combo, Sonora Ponceña, and Willie Rosario, as well as the more pop-oriented "salsa romántica" stars of the 1980s-90s. (For further information see the entry on "salsa music.") Other popular Nuyorican and Puerto Rican exposers of these genres have been Tito Puente, Tito Rodríguez (guaracha and bolero singer), pianists Eddie Palmieri, Richie Ray and Papo Lucca, conguero Ray Barreto, trombonist and singer Willie Colón, and singers La India, Andy Montañez, Bobby Cruz, Cheo Feliciano, Héctor Lavoe, Ismael Miranda, Ismael Rivera, Tito Nieves, Pete El Conde Rodríguez and Gilberto Santa Rosa.
Tito Puente is referenced in the first few minutes of the movie "Stripes". This musical compilation is helpful in better understanding the character, Jack Winger, from that movie.
Ha! Same here. "You keep me up all night listening to those Tito Puente albums." "Well, when he dies, you'll thank me because you can tell people all about him." Or something like that lol.
