Latin In The Horn - Al Hirt

Margarita
Latin In The Horn
Arranged And Conducted By Lalo Schifrin
RCA Victor LPM-3653
1966

Here's a groovy Hirt album. Also check out Al Hirt Meets The Green Hornet.

What makes this album a space age rocket are the very cool arrangements by Lalo Schifirn which help to blend Hirt's very up front horn into the groove, or at the least... build a foundation from which Hirt can shine, but not bury the 60's vibe.
