If you want to hear the best version of this song, listen to the Good Morning America interview with Arturo. I think that version is better than the CD version.
You did well. would be cool to see you add a clave or something on your left foot...all the percussion in the background adds so much, but dig your groove..
It's actually not a band as such but an album by a trumpeter called Arturo Sandoval, a Cuban now living in America.
The type of music is a fusion of Cuban Salsa and Jazz in fact the original was a jazz piece called 'Grooving High' recorded by Charlie Parker and Dizzy Gillespie (Dizzy being a great friend to Arturo and the man responsible for helping Arturo and his family flee Cuba).
yeah it's a tune called 'groovin' high', not 'flying high'. It's a Dizzy Gillespie tune. You can find plenty on YT however most well-known is probably one done by Charlie Parker.
Yeah I should have known it was Dizzy, considering the close relationship he shared with Arturo, I think I've probably heard Groovin, years ago and lost the connection somewhere along the way,

Oh is there a swung version? this one is definitely a Salsa/Songo feel.
