I
am proud to say that Latin Percussion has a
long history as a company that produces high
quality products. The
Montvale Rhumba, LP's first recording in
over twenty years, will surely be revered as
a classic addition to LP's
already strong collection of musical recordings.
To commemorate the milestone release of the
Montvale Rhumba the popular New York City night
club El Flamingo hosted a record release party.
For
this evening of terrific music the Montvale
Rhumba ensemble consisted of percussionists

auxiliary percussionist/vocalist Ricky Salas
