Out Of Stock


Considered by many to be the greatest living Cuban conga player, Carlos “Patato”Valdez has played with Dizzy Gillespie, Art Blakey, Tito Puente, Quincy Jones and many more.

El Hombre finds Patato surrounded by old friends, such as Steve Berrios and Joe Santiago, as well as relative newcomers to the Patato experience, such as flutist & pianist Oriente Lopez.
