  • Latin and Jazz stars including RAY BARRETTO, WILLIE RODRIGUEZ, CHARLIE PALMIERI, CLARK TERRY AND DOC CHEATHAM entered a New York City studio in 1961 and recorded the legendary albumĀ MAZEL TOV, MIS AMIGOS under a fictitious band name (Juan Calle and His Latin Lantzmen). The album magically resounded Jewish standards in Latin time, translating somber, traditional Yiddish and Hebrew melodies into the energy-laden Latin rumbas, cha-chas, and meringues the whole world was rocking to. As a taste — here are two tracks. PAPIROSSEN which means cigarettes in yiddish and FREILACH A NACHT.
