Rock / Jazz / Fusion / Funk / Latin Rock

A really special record from a really special group – one of two sublime 70s gems from Azteca – a wicked blend of jazz, funk, Latin, and soul – all put together by a young Coke Escovedo! Coke's ostensibly the leader of the group, but there's also a richly collaborative feel going on – a style that brings together jazz players like Tom Harrell on trumpet, Mel Martin on saxes, George Muribus on Fender Rhodes, and Flip Nunez on organ – and Latin players like Victor Pantoja on congas, Coke Escovedo on timbales, and Pete Escovedo on added percussion. In fact, the set's a key early example of the strength of the Escovedo family – and like their best later efforts, the set really stretches out and pushes the boundaries of conventional genres. There's also some great guest work from Lenny White on drums, Mike Nock on keyboards, and Neal Schon on guitars – and vocals are by a range of singers who really keep things fresh.

A year later, Azteca gave it another go, straightening out their twisted lines and sanding off their rough edges on Pyramid of the Moon. They're still a horn-accentuated Latin rock band but they now hue closer to Chicago than Santana, a commercial consideration that's not entirely unappealing. There are still elements of bossa nova and polyrhythms but there is also a slickness that's impossible to avoid, and it's superficially attractive. Thing is, beneath this gloss there aren't any big pop hooks – they kind of invert Booker T. & the MG's with "Red Onions" and do give it their all with pop tunes like "Love Is a Stranger," but the record yo-yos between dyed-in-the-wool statements of purpose and unbaked crossovers, so it winds up satisfying neither audience. [The 2013 BBR reissue contains the single version of "Whatcha Gonna Do" as a bonus track.]
