Joe Bataan - Latin Strut (1973)

[BIGSCFAN73]

JOE BATAAN N CARLOS SANTANA FAVORITE ARTISTS!!!! THIS IS REAL MUSIC

[stevesilk53]

Joe Bataan was that dude before this joint was released. He covered "Crystal Blue Persuasion" It was "rhythmized beautifully. The first cut was good but Joe Bataan's became a classic for the R&B folks. It had a soulful vibe bigtime. Also, at that time I think it was considered a "let's all come together" type of song. It's one of my favorites from an era when there was just so much going in the world and more particularly here in the U.S.

[TiDenis972]

C'est exactement le son qu'il faut écouter pour être bien!!!

[bigdusty213]

Come see Joe 9/10/11 at Pt. Fermin Park, San Pedro CA for the 20th Annual Festival of Philippine Arts & Culture. It's a $9 ticket...cheap compared to other venues.

[funkyflautist]

this is sick - makes housework a full on bop lmao...

[13NJJACK]

Just saw Joe and his band do this in Central Pk in NYC last night. Didnt matter if you hispanic,black,or white,Joe rocked the park. We love Joe,cause he's one of our own.

[7Xymox]

What genre of music is it?...great song

[oldschoolbx1970]

Thanks for posting this joint on here. I was in pre-school when this came out. If I'm not mistaken,I either think or believe this can also be good for B-Boys or Lockers to use when they get down.

[WonderBOnTheOne]

just saw him live last saturday (apr 16th 2011) at the Baltic Soul Weekender and this tune was cookin'!!!! Joe still has it!!!!

[SHINGOROMONO]

[Alabadora1]

I had this 45 when I was a teenager and used to play it EVERY DAY! Brings back great memories!

[mwhite36]

This is cool. Very nice!

I also like the horns (and bass) alot 0:58 and 1:58.

I going to check this artist out!

[DREDWHITEHEAD]

DID DEODATO DO THIS SONG ALSO?



[SpotOnMusic1]

@DREDWHITEHEAD YES - I think it was called Super Strut

[Multi1628]

Great dance groove - we play both the original 7" by Deodato & this one on Mericana records label (1973). Check out The Bottle by Joe Bataan & Brother to Brother as well. Check out Charo's 1978 Latin Strut rip, Dance a Little Bit Closer. Thank you for posting this festive & classic song. DAVEDJ

[thegroove2000]

[myownservant]

Deodato was first. He is also credited as writer of latin strut on the single

[JAA2090]

I do not know which was first,this one or Deodatos' Super strut but they are both great work.Joes' is more Latino salsa-ish.Deodatos' is more funky Jazzy-ish.They both came out in '73. Enjoyed it.Peace.JA.

[Atomank68]

Is Joe Bataan implying that his "Latin Strut" is the original for Emur deodato's "Super Strut"??? This for me would be a bombshell, indeed. He should mention this!

[byrd1nypa]

@Atomank68

This is an earlier version of this this song, but originally done by a group called SANGRIA, which actually had a guy named Andy Hernandez (Coati Mundi) on keyboard. Written by Wil Hawes Jr. No Deodato did not do the original.

[Atomank68]

@byrd1nypa. Thanks for clearing-up this issue. Like so many many musical opportunists (though, mind you, I admire him greatly, especially for opening up latin compos in the US which otherwise would never have gotten a broader airing, ) Emur Deodato (and also in this category Sergio Mendez, he who has usurped many of Josw Ben Jor's music and fame,) came to fame by exhibiting the compositions of othersfor their great, "super hits" (the other, of course was STEVIE, THAT MOST 'WONEROUS ONE'!!!

[ephemerol]

greatness

[VoMuzara]

Eumir Deodato played this. Which came first ? o_0

[MsEster4ever]

Love this song Fox Street 163rd in the Bronx early 80's

[alpha520mec]

[Magonista2day]

This a very unique brother. I appreciate that an Afro-Filipino from the Bronx has been able to reach so many Chicanos on the West coast through some positive music.

[okaythenbob]

@rayjr62 They're actually from Long Beach/Compton area.

[josemrtzjams]

[byrd1nypa]

The f;ute probably done by Robert Rodriguez, gui†ar must be Wil Hawes Jr., who wrote this, and was also done before this with a band called Sangria, I played trumpet with, these guys and with Joe B, on the St Latins Day Massacre album, also Eddie Church on trombone, Dennis Harris on sax.

[Seahag97136]

Listen to Super Strut from Deodato2 album - 1973. Both excellent versions, but Deodato makes me move at ludicrous speed.

[WuzingAround]

i get goosebumps from listening to this

[loosestudios]

In 1973, he helped coin the phrase "salsoul," lending its name to his first post-Fania album. Along with the Cayre brothers, he co-founded Salsoul label, though later sold out his interest. He recorded three albums for Salsoul and several singles, including "Rap-O Clap-O," from 1979 which became an early hip hop hit.

[innociazi]

Such Soul! This is real music!
