Ozomatli - Super Bowl Sundae
Latin music seems to get fairly short shrift, here in the UK. When Shakira, Ricky Martin and Santana are the first names to come to mind, you know there's a problem. This though is a pretty wonderful mash of Latin, rock and hip hop flavours, that sounds pretty damn great even though it's a good decade old now. Ozozmatli shared members and generally hippyish vibe with Jurassic 5, and there's a daisy age feel to this. It's the live performance that really makes it though, a brass section that jumps in time, is always a winner with me. Annoyingly the album version of this track has about a minute and a half of intro before it gets to the meat of the song. Seems foolish to waste so much time on the starter when the main is this great.
