Pancho Sanchez, "Do It!"

There's something about Latin and Afro-Cuban rhythms that makes your
muscles start to twitch to the beat. It's like a disease where you
can't stop tapping your foot or bobbing your head. Sometimes there's
words like on "Tin Tin Deo" and "Yo Quisiera," and sometimes it's just
the congas and a repeating piano line like on "Together." Still
dancing. Poncho Sanchez and his ensemble masterfully spread the
infection themselves, and when they join funk group Tower of Power on
two tracks, it's just as contagious. "Short Dog" feels like a
streetside jam session, with musicians randomly calling out throughout
the performance. Not all the songs fit the same mold, but they're
variants of the same germ. You probably won't be humming the quick,
jumpy instrumental lines once the songs are over, but there might be a
few lingering twitches. Take a listen and call me in the morning.
