A disciple of mambo innovator Perez Prado, the Cuban-born Modesto Duran was a pivotal figure in Latin dance music’s transitionary mid-century period.
His gentle slaps can be heard across dozens of 1950s mega-sellers, from Esquivel to Belafonte, Eartha Kitt to Lena Horne.
On his 1960 solo debut, Duran gathered a who’s who of conga-men, including Mongo Santamaria, Willie Bobo, and Juan Cheda, and delivered a cinematic and percussive melange of Afro-cuban, cha cha, and exotic jazz styles for the discerning listener.
LP available on Sangre de Chango red coloured vinyl and black vinyl.
