The Story
Afro-Cuban flavor. The great energy that innervates this style charges and drags quality musicians along with it to remarkable results.
With Kansas City saxophonist Bobby Watson, Mantilla fronts The Jazz Tribe, a sextet successfully blending jazz with Cuban rhythms. Everlasting features eight original numbers and Charlie Parker's 'Donna Lee,' which comes out less Latin than the others and, it must be said, all the better for it. Watson pays tribute to the founder of bebop with some fine questing and inventive blowing. There's also an interesting piano solo from Xavier Davis before Watson returns to trade choruses with trumpeter Jack Walrath.
