  • They Say...

    Joe Cuba vaulted from the barrio into the mainstream via 1966's Bang! Bang! Push, Push, Push, a relentlessly energetic and inventive record that brilliantly translates elements of Latin jazz, R&B, and Motown to virtually define the emerging boogaloo sound. The album's multi-culti sensibilities remain a harbinger of the changes to come not just in music but American society as a whole -- the vocals rotate between English and Spanish, but regardless of language, the sheer passion and joy of the endeavor radiate from each and every groove. Most impressive is the visceral intensity of the performances -- in its way, Bang! Bang! Push, Push, Push anticipates both the precision and freedom of funk, and remains a record that seems to exist outside of time, place, or idiom.
