Performer: New Swing Sextet
Distributor: Universal Distribution Notes: Though their name might suggest some nouveau stylistic variation, the New Swing Sextet in fact present straight-up salsa, with no bells or whistles (except maybe the literal kind). Led by George Rodriguez, the old-school salseros had been effectively retired from music since 1979, but they finally reunited for BACK ON THE STREETS. The album is full of the kind of slinky sophistication and percolating polyrhythms that made the group famous, and it unsurprisingly landed them a Grammy nomination for best Traditional Tropical Latin album.
