Manteca

Not only for, for, for this style but for timba, too.

Like, uh, the, the song Bacalao con Pan, I find a similarity with Manteca even though Manteca is not-

Oh

...

[laughs] Yeah.

Exactly.

No, but I, I said Latin jazz because- Manteca marks the time where people started calling it Latin jazz, and they started making a distinction.

It should be Afro-Cuban jazz.

We need one.

Empress Orchestra's Manteca.

We're

going to put after the podcast,

please

don't stay with us.

He's going to dance for us on Manteca.

Well done.

And they're doing a performance of the Afro-Cuban jazz fusion styles of those artists, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Dizzy Gillespie.

Think like Manteca, which is the track we're listening to now.

¶¶ Manteca was co-written by Dizzy Gillespie, Chano Pozo, and Gil Fuller in 1947, and it's considered to be one of the essential pioneering works in the entire genre of Afro-Cuban jazz.

This is a performance at the Shell.

You can still get tickets ranging from 37 bucks for the lawn and up, But I feel like a broken record because I always mention this, but you can just walk around the waterfront right there around the shell and you can see the stage, hear the music pretty well.
