Description

The Latin Touch of Jimmy Namaro showcases the Canadian vibraphonist and percussionist in a set of Latin‑flavoured arrangements of popular standards, film themes, and light‑jazz repertoire. Namaro — long associated with Canadian lounge, television, and club circuits — blends vibraphone, percussion, and rhythm‑section backing into a polished, easy‑listening format typical of RCA Camden’s Canadian issues.

The album mixes contemporary selections (“Man of La Mancha,” “Call Me”), classic standards (“Over the Rainbow,” “Stranger in Paradise”), and Latin‑styled reinterpretations (“St. Louis Blues Pachanga”). Camden’s CAS‑series pressings were budget‑line releases, often unique to Canada, with alternate track sequences and artwork compared to U.S. counterparts.

Recorded and mixed at Eastern Sound in Toronto, the LP reflects the era’s polished studio‑lounge aesthetic and Namaro’s reputation as a versatile instrumentalist.
