Jungle Fantastique was, until its reissue in 2000, a very scarce classic.
Originally released on the Jubilee label, this 1958 set features vibraphonist
Bobby Montez in a quintet with pianist Carlos Ortega Avelar, bassist Jimmy Baiz,
Miguel Gutierrez on timbales, and Louis Miranda on congas. The music ranges from
exotic melodies and heated Afro-Cuban jazz to percussion displays (Kon-Tiki).
The music is Americanized Cuban jazz, similar at times to the Cal Tjader sound
of the 1950s. Although Montez is the lead voice, it is the full ensemble sound
that is most memorable on six of the leaders originals and melodic versions of
Speak Low, Carioca, and Summertime. All of the music on this LP-length CD
(mambos, boleros, and cha-cha-chas) is easily danceable, full of infectious
rhythms, and quite pleasing.
