Jewish melodies and Latin rhythms: a perfect match.
-
We Say...
Pianist Irving Fields was born on the Lower East Side and became smitten with Latin sounds in the ’30s, when he scored a gig performing on a Cuban cruise. He began to incorporate Latin rhythms in his music, leading to this 1959 album. It takes but a glance at the kitschy cover art and wonderful title to out this as a novelty album — but the best novelty remains the music itself, in which Fields weds Jewish melodies with Latin rhythms. In the pianist’s world, a famous wedding classic travels south, gains prominent bongos and resurfaces as “Havannah Negila.” It sounds much groovier this way, but — sorry, Aunt Belle — is considerably more difficult to dance to.
“ The indie iTunes — Hardcore music fans are migrating to eMusic, the iTunes Music Store's cheaper, cooler cousin.”
