This weeks Latin Jazz Artist Pick Of The Week is the great conguero Poncho Sanchez. Poncho used to play congas with the great Cal Tjader before breaking out on his own and forming his own band. Since that time Poncho has released numerous recordings and is always playing around the Los Angeles area. For those that have not seen Poncho live my only advice to you is go check him out!
Here is a great video of Poncho playing a solo before segueing into his hit, Besame Mama which is sung here by the great salsa legend Oscar D'Leon. Check it out!
