    El Lick does seem to permeate a lot of latin songs. I can dig it.

If you like musical arrangements, I think you could even appreciate some piano adaptations, executed by me, of some pieces, you can find them going into this channel, with which I’m just writing this comment. :)If you decide to click on it, I hope you will like the sound and the visual aesthetic!💚

      I’m not an expert but a good start is playing octaves with both hands and playing the rest of the chord (3, 5, etc.) after the octave. So at 0:29 he did octaves on 1 and the rest of the chord minus the root/octave notes on the and of 1. Do this with Latin rhythms and you’ll have a good start

      Chromaticism was most definitely not a “contribution” from anyone, much less latin jazz. Its been a part of jazz and any general music form since the first musicians got their hands on an instrument that *could* play it.
      But to the other points, yes, the melting pots of jazz have been wonderful
