So pleased to have made this piece of London Jazz history available again. Robin Jones was rightfully called "The King Salsa" of the London Underground Latin Jazz Scene and was everyone's Congero of choice. He was rightfully proud of this first ever original Latin Album recorded in the UK on the totally obscure Apollo Sound label. Fresh and bouncy, one of the most important albums recorded in the UK Jazz and Latin scenes and the wellspring of what was to come.
