overview

"The Har-You Percussion Group's self-titled album stands as a testament to how exciting and profound music education can be for kids ... Latin, Cuban, jazz, and blues influences combine to create their boogie-down melting pot of rhythm that keeps the feet moving." -- All Music Guide

This Latin soul group, led by master conga player Montego Joe as part of the Harlem Youth program of the '60s, is a fantastic mix of funky bass, heavy drums, burning horn lines, and soulful vocals. Quite simply one of the great Latin jazz releases of all time, this disc includes the monster tracks "Welcome to the Party," "Feed Me Good," and "Oua-Train."
