Customer Reviews A great Jazz cd This was the first Jazz cd that I bought and I was immediately loved by that genre so I bought some other jazz cds later but this still is my favorite of all of them. I love all the songs in this CD which is one of my favorite cds of all time. Dizzy Gillespie is a great trumpet player and is my favorite along with Miles Davis. This cd is a highly recommended masterpiece. Wish I could give this more than 5 stars I love all the songs in this beautiful CD which this CD remains to be one of my favorite albums. This CD is very good music. Highly recommended. Get this CD in your collection today. Chico O'Farrill as major composer The O'Farrill - Gillespie partnership goes back to the 1940s, and this album finds both of them, well after the era they made their names in, still at an absolute zenith of their creative ability. Latin Jazz has never gotten the credit it deserves (did you hear Ken Burns mention it?), and Chico O'Farrill is unjustly left off most lists of our greatest 20th Century composers. I would compare this to the Gil Evans - Miles Davis collaborations. . You can see a complete list of all Dizzy Gillespie with Machito discography, or go back to the Dizzy Gillespie with Machito tabs
