about

Bembe Blues (Alvarez) was inspired by the iconic jazz standard Afro Blue composed and recorded by Mongo Santamaria. Bembe Blues was included as a combo practice track and heard on the “Sheddin' the Basics-Latin Jazz” educational CD that was released as a jazz minus one combo practice track coauthored with noted percussionist and music educator Dr. Marc Jacoby. The 6/8 Bembe groove is a nice vehicle for the inventive soloing and the exciting phrases that are traded between congas and timbales.
