Concert Review: Doc Severinsen and el Ritmo de la Vida (10/16/2010)
Source:
Groove Notes
One unfortunate phrase that is too often uttered when referring to older jazz musicians who come to town for a concert is “You better go see them now, because you never know if you will have the chance to see them again."

The powerful, socially conscious songs of Juan Luis Guerra are largely incomprehensible to many New Yorkers, because they are in Spanish.
ON Friday evening the Dominican singer Juan Luis Guerra, the Latin Recording Academy's 2007 man of the year, will take the stage for a Madison Square Garden concert fronting his 16-piece band, 3 back-up singers and 4 dancers. If past New York shows are any indication, the crowd will be electrified by his anthemic merengues on the developing world's ...
