For nearly 30 years, the music of Angel "Papo" Vazquez has reflected all the vibrant, exhilarating colors of the melting pot that is Latin jazz. Carnival In San Juan (Cubop), his latest CD with the dynamic band Pirates & Troubadours, is a showcase for his peerless control of phrasing, dynamics, and song structure on "Mundo Bizarro," the four-part suite "En La Cueva de Tan," and the Thelonious Monk favorite "Stuffy Turkey."
