A breezy latin flavoured 1960 record from pianist 'Don Carlos' a supposedly famous figure on the British Latin American scene and with arrangements by Kenny Graham, no less. He also provided five of the tunes heard.
Joe Harriott pops up here and there and there is support from Bobby Pratt, Bert Courtley and Phil Seamen. Otherwise the assembled musicians are anonymous.
A scarce record to find, never on cd, and worth a listen for Joe Harriott alone.
Don Carlos - leader, piano
Bobby Pratt - trumpet
Bert Courtley - trumpet
Hank Stamps - bass trombone
Joe Harriott - alto
Phil Seamen - drums, percussion
Kenny Graham - arranger
