El Negro Bemb​ó​n

from Sonero: The Music of Ismael Rivera by Miguel Zenón

/

about

Another early hit with Cortijo y Su Combo, "El Negro Bembón" tackles racism and racial disparity with both humor and seriousness. Maelo is on fire on that late 50's rendition, and his rhythmic virtuosity on that classic version inspired our arrangement in more ways than one.
