Latin Tinge with Jack Costanzo & Nati Cano
American Routes explores Latin ties to American music with mariachi bandleader Natividad "Nati" Cano. Mariachi has influenced Western swing and others styles. Cano has worked closely over the years with Tucson-born vocalist Linda Ronstadt. Plus the unlikely Italian-American "bongo king" Jack Costanzo on learning Latin, tropical, and jazz styles from the likes of Desi Arnaz and Perez Prado.
