Dizzy Gillespie's Dream Band - Manteca - 1982

Dizzy Gillespie was as responsible as anyone for wedding Latin rhythms to Jazz in post WWII NYC. 35 years later, when this performance was filmed and now, 65 years after he opened our ears to World music, Diz' is still one of the most vibrant sounds around. 
Manteca!
