If there is one album that every bass player studying latin music MUST have it is the Cuban Jam Sessions album. And if there is one bass line and one bass solo that every bass player studying latin music MUST learn, it is Cachao's work on Descarga Cubana. The groove is so deep and the solo so meaningful that it sets the basis for every bit of bass work that followed it. Then there's the Tata Güines conga solo and the Guillermo Barreto timbale solo - such soulful and spontaneous playing! Take some time with this one - it is an important study in the art of Latin bass playing!
