Hamiet Bluiett's Birthright is just too dry to make any kind of positive impression. Maybe I don't like the sound of baritone sax? It's very ROUND, which I'm not opposed to, but nothing grabbed me at all. Ugh I suck at talking about music, I really do. I should just go back to rating and keep my mouth shut.

but Sofrito International Soundclash is just about as amazing as their Tropical Discotheque and that one is gobsmackingly excellent so you know you're into something good with this 'un, too. Just so much danceable goodness, from all over - cumbia percussion, disco bass, steel drums, thumb piano; it's got a little bit of everything right in the world.
