New Swing Sextet - Revolucionando

As much as I love discovering new sounds of Salsa, and sharing it with the discerning public, I also love to remind Salseros that their favorite or familiar artiste would probably have more hidden gems, other than that one particular song you hear week in, week out.

The New Swing Sextet is like the legendary phoenix (did I get the bird right?). Legends in their own right in the Swingin' Sixties, their last studio album was in 1970. As the saying goes, Legend don't die, they just fade away. Like the Legends they are, they didn't die, but instead took a 30-year hiatus! They reformed somewhere in mid-2000 and in 2008, reborn fresh from the ashes, they released their comeback album, "Back on the Streets" which was Grammy nominated. They have since released another album in 2013.

New Swing Sextet are heavy proponents of Latin Jazz, with their 'Mary Poppins' cover of 'My Favorite Things' a crowd favorite in the KL dance scene. Many dancers, know this song by heart but may not be aware of the many other awesome fare that New Swing produces. This is another superb piece by them, entitled 'Revolucionando'.

Good right? You'll love it if you like dancing to Latin Jazz Salsa, and even if you don't, it's still an awesome dancing song! I had the pleasure of dancing to the sounds of the New Swing Sextet live in Singapore a couple of years back in the popular Singapore International Salsa Festival, a happy memory that will keep with me for a long time!
