Very few solo recordings exist of the legendary Cuban percussionist Lazaro Pl+í, better known simply as Manteca; who rose to fame in the nightclubs of Havana in the 1940's and 50's. Manteca often became the high point of many a nightclub appearance - when he would emerge from the back of the bandstand to mesmerize the audience with his explosive conga playing. The rare early 1960's sessions presented here faithfully capturing Manteca leading a small but explosive Afro-Cuban combo, is an exemplary representation of the master percussionist. All selections newly remastered.
