So this really isn’t just about music or sound compression at all is it?
It may have started out that way by the the OP. Not a friendly forum however, I guess that is just the nature of the beast.

African mumbo jumbo...really? I suggest people attend an Arturo O’Farrill’s Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra show (Birdland) and see what "snowflakes" are into, as the punch and rhythm of Latin music is all Africa...I bet Neil Diamond knows that...

Back on track ... I love Latin music. It’s full of soul. I started a thread titled "Do you like Mexican music," and was taken to task by a few small thinkers claiming that I was being "racist." The fact is, I’ve been deep into the Hispanic culture for a long time. My children are Hispanic. The music is fantastic, and I have a lot of it.

On the Arturo O’Farrill albums ... As a result of Wolfie’s above post, I checked them out on Spotify. The ballads on the "In These Shoes" album are really good and the vocalist is quite nice as well. The band kind of reminds me of Willie Bobo’s orchestra. Not my cup of tea really. I much prefer the small Mexican groups. Mariachi is quite nice too.

Check this out ... one of my all-time favorites:

I like Latin music as much as the next guy, I even took Latin in school.
