A. Noro Morales & His Quintet - Saona Norosvaldo
�Noro� Morales was a Puerto Rican band leader and pianist who emigrated to New York in 1935. His brothers were also successful recording musicians. Whilst in the US Noro released �Serenata Ritmica� on Decca Records and enjoyed
a very successful period playing alongside Machito, Puente, Rosario and many of the Latin greats. �Saona� is taken from the 1964 Tico LP �No Blues, Noro�.

AA. Cachao Y Su Orquestra - Siboney
Cachao � a true pillar in latin music. Considered by many to be the inventor of the Mambo sound, a true master of �Decarga� or Cuban jam sessions and a highly influential �Charanga� bass player� Not surprising given that his extended family consisted of over 40 of them! In 1994 Cachao was inducted into Billboard�s Latin Music Hall of Fame, he has won multiple grammy awards and even has a star on the Hollywood �Walk of Fame�. Taken from the album �Jam Session With Feeling (Descargas Cubanas)� originally released on New York based �Fiesta� in 1962.
