Felo Bergaza - two LP's - 1960 - Cuba

Felo Bergaza

Pianist and composer.
Born in 'Trinidad De Cuba' August 29th, 1916.
Died in La Habana, 1969.

Felo Bergaza was "the man"!
Two Lp's with his swinging group.
These can be found as re-issues on CD, though they were taken from the original vinyl.
There is one recording by him that's not easy to find, recorded in the '60's, called:
“Percusión tropical - Felo Bergaza y su combo”,
with Aristides "Tata" Guines" Soto y Alejoà,
Rogelio "Yeyito" Iglesias and Guillermo Barreto.
(Anybody have it? Let me know)
