""From Afro-Cuban Rhythms to Latin Jazz" is an illuminating and remarkable study. This book is written with unparalleled authority and expertise, a true gem of a work."--Danilo Lozano, Flutist, Record producer, Whittier College Professor "As curator of the Smithsonian exhibit 'Latin Jazz: La Combinacion Perfecta (Perfect Combination)' and author of its accompanying book, Dr. Raul Fernandez has helped fill a void recognizing the Latino contribution to the American musical idiom of jazz. Now he further expands on that theme by exploring the lives of unsung Cuban musicians who helped shaped not only jazz but also American popular music. Dr. Fernandez is a treasure of musical scholarship that affirms that the Latino involvement in shaping and playing the popular music of the United States is more than just a footnote."--Jesse "Chuy" Varela, Contributing writer, San Francisco Chronicle, Jazz Times, and Latin Beat Magazine
