I'd been looking for a copy of Edmundo Ros CD "Silk and Latin" for quite a long time. The last time I heard it was during the 70's. The LP featured Ms. Caterina Valente. How would you like to featured its songs? Thanks. A different latin american music interpretation....thanks.
@spiderman4761 "SILK AND LATIN" is avaliable on cd ,it was released as " Nothing But Aces/Latin Melodies Old and New" which was the original English Decca title (Nothing but aces) . It is avaliable fairly cheaply from Amazon.co.uk The other title (there are two albums on one disc) "Latin melodies old and new " is a phase 4 instrumental album , the remastering is superb and it is on the Vocallion label. He made two albums with Caterina Valente and both are brilliant .
The Mighty Sparrow must have used this to inspire him in writing " Miss Mary" ?

@MrDeanMartin . The Title of the Calypso is " Sing a Simple Calypso" , composed and sung by Lord Blakie from Trinidad and Tobago.
