Fresh off their 30th Anniversary & World Tour in 2019, the genre-bending, multi-platinum selling Mavericks are changing the game once again with the release of their first-ever Latin format album En Español. Produced by the band's longtime creative partner Niko Bolas (Neil Young, Prince, Sheryl Crow) and Mavericks lead singer & principal songwriter Raul Malo, En Español features a compelling mix of standards and Spanish-language originals in signature Mavericks style.
Album released in Spain in the 80's. It is the second published collection of songs in Spanish performed by the pianist, guitarist and singer Nat King Cole. Nat only had musical and pianistic received from his mother and soon he turned his attention to jazz, swing and gospel, along with classical music. His artistic activity, although it started in the middle of the decade of 30's, did not stand up to early 40's and ended up having a number 1 in sales in 1950 with the theme 'Mona Lisa'. From 1958 Nat expanded his global popularity to the Spanish-speaking countries beginning to sing songs in Spanish, which he did until 1962, but their language skills were lacking. From that time and the Spanish repertoire is compiled this first album.
CD album reissue of the original recording published in 1966 by the Canadian jazz pianist and composer Oscar Peterson (Montreal, 1925-2007). Peterson was called the "Maharaja of the keyboard" and went on to win eight Grammy awards during his career. In this album he added to his usual trio, with bassist Sam Jones and drummer Louis Hayes, a superb Latin rhythm section, including Marshall Thompson, Harold Jones and Henley Gibson. The title is really misleading. This music is not Spanish, but Brazilian soul.
First album, also titled 'Amor', by the trio Los Panchos (Alfredo Gil , Chucho Navarro and Johnny Albino) and Turkish-American singer Eydie Gormé recorded in February 1964 in New York, reissued in Spain in 1982 in LP format. This four aces of the song left to remember this classical recording of bolero and Latin vocal music.
