Driven by a rhythm section including Chris Kibble (Piano, Terry Callier) and featuring an outrageous five-piece brass section, King Salsa is an electrifying outfit that proudly follows a dynasty of great Latin bands. 'Sabroso Mambo' pays homage to many of Robin's influences and friends, including legends of the Latin scene such as Tito Puente, Ray Barretto and Moses Simons, as well as introducing new charts written by Chris Kibble, Gavin Broom and Bosco De Oliveira. Produced by Tim Smart (Trombone player for The Specials), Bosco De Oliveira and Tim Adnitt, this album highlights Weave Records' absolute commitment to the highest production values possible.
