Tarquim - Y Los Metales Preciosos - Vinyl Record

Barcelona-based Tarquim continues to surprise with each new release, transporting us to a different musical landscape with every production. Following in the footsteps of his acclaimed previous production "A Cuba"(Say It Loud, 2020), he continues to explore the musical tradition of the largest of the Antilles, but now creating a salsa/Cuban music orchestra where the arrangements, performances and original compositions shine. This album is a step forward, both in composition and arrangements. We find salsa, son, timba, guaguancó, bolero, Latin jazz and cha-cha-cha. But above all, we find songs. Songs with themes ranging from the housing problem, love and individualism to tributes to the Cuban musical tradition and to people who are no longer with us. Musically, the masterful brass arrangements deserve a special mention. An explosion of power and melody, where the horn section shines like precious metals. The melodies and harmonies reveal influences from jazz and mod

Barcelona-based Tarquim continues to surprise with each new release, transporting us to a different musical landscape with every production. Following in the footsteps of his acclaimed previous production "A Cuba"(Say It Loud, 2020), he continues to explore the musical tradition of the largest of the Antilles, but now creating a salsa/Cuban music orchestra where the arrangements, performances and original compositions shine. This album is a step forward, both in composition and arrangements. We find salsa, son, timba, guaguancó, bolero, Latin jazz and cha-cha-cha. But above all, we find songs. Songs with themes ranging from the housing problem, love and individualism to tributes to the Cuban musical tradition and to people who are no longer with us. Musically, the masterful brass arrangements deserve a special mention. An explosion of power and melody, where the horn section shines like precious metals. The melodies and harmonies reveal influences from jazz and modern African-American music as well as the great orchestras of Cuba, from Benny Moré to Alain Pérez, via Quincy Jones. But this album is, above all, popular dance music. And that's because "Tarquim y Los Metales Preciosos"makes it impossible not to move your body while listening to it. Tarquim is music to share, to enjoy in community. Noteworthy is the presence of bassist and singer Diego Coppinger as co-author of the lyrics. The cast of musicians includes names such as Jay Kalo on drums (Alain Pérez, Omara Portuondo), Alcibiades Durruthy (Tumbakin, Pupy y Los Que Son Son), Reinier Elizalde (Chucho Valdés, Paquito de Rivera, Pupy y Los Que Son Son, Maraca) on baby bass, Yuri Hernández (NG la Banda, Nathy Peluso, Roberto Fonseca) on lead trumpet, Albert Costa (Nathy Peluso, C. Tangana, Jimmy Bosh, Larry Harlow) on trombone and Oriol Martínez (Alain Pérez, Lucrecia, Jose Alberto "El Canario", Tromboranga) on percussion.

We Use Stock Images
Because we have over 2 million items for sale we have to use stock images, this listing does not include the actual image of the item for sale. The purchase of this specific item is made with the understanding that the image shown in this listing is a stock image and not the actual item for sale. For example: some of our stock images include stickers, labels, price tags, hyper stickers, obi's, promotional messages, signatures and or writing which may not be available in the actual item.

Vinyl Record disc colour
Stock images can show a black, coloured, or picture disc. Unless a colour or picture is explicitly described in this listing, this purchase is made with the understanding that it could be black or any colour, and or could be a picture disc.
 

Vinyl Record Version
Vinyl discs are released in many editions and variations, such as standard edition, re-issue, demonstration (demo), not for sale, promotional (promo), special edition, limited edition, and many other editions and versions.  The disc you receive could be any of these editions or variations. 
 

The Outer Sleeve
When we describe the sleeve condition in this listing, we are describing the outer sleeve only, specifically, it does not describe the inner sleeve unless explicitly referenced.
 

The Inner Sleeve
Almost all of our vinyl records will include either an original inner sleeve or a plain inner sleeve, or a printed inner sleeve. The images of this inner sleeve as shown on this listing are stock images, not the actual image. Inner sleeves are notorious for being replaced or damaged, such as edge splits. Unless explicitly mentioned in this listing the inner sleeve is not part of this purchase. If you purchase this vinyl record it is with the clear understanding the inner sleeve is not included as part of this sale, and if a sleeve is included it is provided on an as/is condition solely as packaging, as a protector for the record, which may have creases, wear or edge splits.
 

Hairlines
If we reference a hairline(s), it means it is a light line on the disc that looks like a hair. Hairlines are different to scratches or wear. A hairline is lighter and has limited and less impact on the playing quality, whereas wear or a scratch can cause some level of clicks, pops or interference when playing.
