The Latinaires – Camel Walk (1968)

Formed in the Bronx section of Southview during the late '60s, the Latinaires were just one of dozens of younger Latin bands who developed the boogaloo sound. Formed with a line of saxophones instead of the predominant brass, the Latinaires released Camel Walk on the Fania label in 1968. Two years later, the group released Like It Is on Cotique, but disintegrated shortly after. ~ John Bush
