Об альбоме
From Chicago with Lovo !! A años de su lamzamiento esta pegando. The Numero Group gang has unearthed yet another storied gem and pressed it up for the waiting masses, this time from Alfonso Lovo. La Gigantona is a thrilling mixture of psychedelic acid Latin Jazz, Nicaraguan-style classic Spanish Guitar and percussion filled Funk. Thanks to the deep digging abilities of the Numero Group, this amazing record finally sees the light of day. La Gigantona is gentle and heartfelt with pepperings of splendid and inspired guitar work and hard hitting and breathtakingly ecstatic body moving Funk Jazz pieces that take their time, stretch out and explore the groove. Reminiscent of Miles Davis' 'On The Corner', Eddie Palmieri's 'Harlem River Drive' project with a distinctly Latin vibe enhancement and of course early era-Santana, 'La Gigantona' is lost treasure that warrants many a repeated listen just to catch up on this long forgotten mystery album of soul saving rhapsody. Mega Recommended.
