During his Capitol years, pianist George Shearing recorded several Latin-flavored albums which generally found his popular piano-vibes-guitar-bass-drums Quintet augmented by the congas of Armando Peraza. For this particular album not only is Peraza added to the group but so are a couple of other percussionists and an unidentified flutist. The Quintet sound is still quite dominant during the rhythmic easy-listening set with the music ranging from "Blue Moon" and "You and the Night and the Music" to "Jackie's Mambo" and "Say 'Si Si'." The performances on this LP have not yet been reissued on CD. ~ Scott Yanow http://www.allmusic.com/album/mood-latino-mw0000872116

Personnel:  George Shearing (piano);  Gary Burton (vibraphone);  Armando Peraza (congas);  John Gray (guitar);  Bill Yancey (bass);  Vernel Fournier (drums)
