Brilliant album of Latin Music in Indonesia from the early 1950s to the early 60s. Latin music and rhythms, such as mambo and cha cha cha were popular throughout East Asia such as in Tokyo, Shanghai, Hong Kong, Bangkok and Singapore. In Indonesia, Latin rhythms were mixed with Indonesian elements to great effect and great popularity. Latin flavours even found their way later into dangdut and other Indonesian popular music. A fascinating album packed with musical discoveries.
