WELL, FUNK ME HARD
Just one listen, and this Latin-flavored funk jazz party had me hooked. “Again, again!” my party-depleted inner child screamed. “Mendó,” as performer, arranger, producer, composer, instrumentalist, Cuban Canadian Alex Cuba writes, “is the substance of the soul.” And this produced-during-pandemic soulfest proves that. Afro-Cuban, Flamenco, pile-driving big band — it’s a worldwide journey for you to savor.
