I played Keyboards in the Concord Hotel Lounge back in the 60's, and Machitos band would perform at the hotel in the summer. I would go into the main room and stand behind the band stand, and listen to that band play.. It was the greatest and a good learning experience for me. I even became friendly with a couple of the band members, and we would hang out together when we were both on a break..... Fun Times
Im a moreno and love latin music.I feel the soul machito was great as well as tito.I used to listen to his roseland tape so much it popped.we are the same people music supports this statement.
Oh yeah... it reminds me of something, I met this man's grandson(not joking).I really met his grandson. His grandson is not full of excitement on his work. But that kid also don't get excited on other stuff.
Hey RawpowerGroudon, I'm one of Machito's grandsons. What was that kids name. If he is one of my cousins or brother then it's strange that he'd be moved when talking about Macho
I loved Machito. He was great and I still enjoy his music, but one thing Mario didn't mention was his aunt the great singer Graciela. AY Jose asi no es!!!!!
Although it was nice to hear Mario chat about his father, I was slightly dissapointed that he offered no insight into his father that is not already known by fans of Machito and or NY Latin music.
