Album Notes & Community Reviews
Multi-instrumentalist Roland Kirk infuses his characteristically eccentric post-bop approach with rich Afro-Cuban and Brazilian rhythms on 'Slightly Latin'. The dense, highly percussive arrangements provide a lush, energetic canvas for Kirk's simultaneous horn playing and unparalleled improvisational technique.
