Our Take

Album review: Paquito D'Rivera - "Este Camino Largo"

Paquito D'Rivera's latest offering, "Este Camino Largo," is a musical journey like no other. This Cuban-born virtuoso brings his signature blend of Latin jazz and Afro-Cuban rhythms to the forefront in this eclectic collection of tracks.

From the moment the album kicks off with the energetic opener "Caminando," you know you're in for a wild ride. D'Rivera's mastery of the saxophone is on full display, weaving in and out of complex melodies with ease. It's like watching a master acrobat perform death-defying feats on a tightrope, but with way more groove.

Tracks like "La Canción," with its infectious horn riffs and pulsating percussion, will have you tapping your feet and swaying your hips in no time. D'Rivera effortlessly blends traditional Cuban music with modern jazz sensibilities, creating a sound that is fresh, exciting, and undeniably danceable.

But it's not all high-energy bangers on "Este Camino Largo." D'Rivera shows his softer side on tracks like "Canción para Bebo," a heartfelt ballad that showcases his lyrical prowess and emotional depth.

All in all, "Este Camino Largo" is a testament to D'Rivera's incredible talent and creativity. It's a musical rollercoaster that takes you on a wild ride through the vibrant streets of Havana and beyond. Strap in, crank up the volume, and get ready for a musical experience like no other. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
