Drumming with the Mambo King: each Composer: Puente Tito
The late, great Tito Puente was a giant in the world of Latin music. This exceptional new book/CD pack, co-written with Jim Payne, includes an extensive biography, a history of Afro-Cuban music, archival photos, step-by-step instruction in Afro-Cuban music for timbales and drumset, and transcriptions of three of Tito's most famous timbale solos. This great pack also includes a 75-minute CD containing twelve of Tito's classic recordings. These are original tracks (mambos, cha chas and timbale solos that have made him famous) coordinated with authentic percussion charts, instructional examples, new solos and words of advice from the Mambo King.
