{"product_id":"823134907713","title":"Orquesta Akokan \"Caracoles\" [Blue Vinyl]","description":"\u003cp\u003eA contemporary record, but one with a very timeless vibe – music that seems to evoke a vintage Havana, almost in the years before the revolution – as Orquesta Akokan deliver a wicked mix of percussion, basslines, and horns – all topped with fantastic vocals from Kiko Ruiz and a few other singers! Arrangements are by pianist Michael Eckroth, who's got a nicely bold approach – and the group also features tres from producer Jacob Plasse – but it may well be the strong use of tenor and alto saxes that really send things over the top – cutting a nice edge next to the more familiar trumpets and trombones for such a group, and really opening up the jazzy potential in the music! Ruiz is fantastic too – a hell of a singer with a wickedly fluid, musical vibe – and titles include \"Pan Con Tibiri\", \"La Fiera\", \"Pregonero\", \"Dona Felipa\", \"Flor De Mi Campo\", \"Con Licencia\", and \"Suave Suave\".\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"---","offers":[{"title":"VINYL","offer_id":44153180651695,"sku":"823134907713","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0552\/8833\/2463\/files\/orquestaako_caracoles_101b.jpg?v=1720745255","url":"https:\/\/endofanear.sbs\/products\/823134907713","provider":"End Of An Ear","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
