Jamal's "Poinciana" got a lot of rotation from me and my chums in junior high. Try as I might, I just couldn't get the ladies to appreciate it.

The Conga Kings

Jazz Descargas

"Jazz Descargas authentically cross-pollinates Afro-Cuban music with Jazz, thanks mainly to improvisations and solos from Phil Woods on also sax, Jimmy Bosch on trombone, the bittersweet trumpet player known as Chocolate...The empty piano chair leaves plenty of room for the congas, saxophones and guitars to dish out the against-the-beat chords that pianos normally play in Latin music to spice up the rhythms...The title track presents an original tour-de-force conga jam credited to all three congueros, beginning with an introduction that's more melody than rhythm (on congas!), and steeping for nearly eight minutes just the right mixture of interlocking virtuosity and head-bobbing, beat crazy funk."- All About Jazz
