Quimbombo: I dare you to sit still while
Quimbombo is on. This Cuban combo will
keep you gyrating and smiling all
the while. Comparisons could be made to the Buena Vista Social Club,
but these tracks have more of a dance-jazz
thang going for them. Again,
you likely
won’t understand a single
word they’re singing, but it doesn’t matter, the rhythms will
carry you. But take heart, gringos: “Sluggo” is an original composition dedicated to the evil character who used to
squash Mr. Bill on the old
Saturday Night live shows. Isn’t
it nice to know that we do have an effect on our neighbors?
