Blending Afro-Cuban rhythms and jazz, the band was a seminal force and marked a new era in Cuban music. His defection to the United States in 1980 was a turning point, as he became an ambassador of Latin jazz around the world, fusing cultures and genres effortlessly. A decade into his new status, D'Rivera entered a New York studio to record an homage to Bebop. He enlisted Grammy award winner and Dizzy Gillespie alum James Moody, distinguished straight ahead jazzers Mark Morganelli, Harvey Swartz and Al Foster, and major Latin-jazz players of the day Claudio Roditi, Danilo Perez, and Pedrito Lopez. While his intentions may have been to make an album like \"Monk, Bird, and Dizzy\" as he states in the liner notes, the results here are undeniably in D'Rivera's signature style.The album features a mix of original compositions from featured players, alongside the ensembles take on Coltrane's \"Giant Steps\", and Monks \"I Mean You,\" all delivered with D'Rivera's unique perspective and deep understanding of traditional jazz and Latin music traditions.Originally released in 1992, the album has been remastered and is being released on vinyl for the first time ever as a double disc LP set.Remastered by Alex McOllough at True East Mastering.
