Ricardo Marrero & The Group - A Taste 1976 (TSG Records)
Label : TSG Records Value : Maybe the best album ever from the mighty Ricardo Marrero a 70s Latin talent who didn't record much, but always gave the world something wonderful when he did! The set's got this really great vibe some cuts that update 60s Latin soul modes with even more righteous 70s elements other numbers that are more jazz-based, almost in the territory of Cal Tjader's funky Latin tracks! A number of the cuts have vocals by a female singer who really helps give the whole thing a feel that's very different than the usual Latin record of the time almost a dose of Cali soul, even though Ricardo was more of a east coast talent at the time!
