{"product_id":"805558280122-diluvio","title":"ROBBY AMEEN | DILUVIO","description":"... a roller coaster ride of wildly percolating beats, choppy rhythmic thrusts and plenty of popping percussion. In reinventing Afro-Cuban, funk and post-bop, he's kept everything charged up like a crazed rhino on steroids. Keep out of the way and you'll be fine. CLASSICALITE. Grammy-winning New York drummer Robby Ameen has had an established recording and touring career stretching from Dizzy Gillespie to Paul Simon over the last four decades, highlighted by a 20-year run with the band of Latin icon Ruben Blades. Although he's of Lebanese origin, Ameen is best known for the unique and powerful Afro-Cuban jazz style he developed and displayed on hundreds of recordings, including many with Dave Valentin, Eddie Palmieri, Kip Hanrahan, and Conrad Herwig's Latin Side All-Stars.Diluvio marks Ameen's 3rd release as a composer, arranger \u0026amp; band leader, teaming with Troy Roberts, Bob Franceschini, Conrad Herwig, Edsel Gomez, Lincoln Goines, Bill O’Connell \u0026amp; Mauricio Herrera, most with whom he goes back several decades. Musically, it's his vision of the sounds he's dedicated a lifetime to exploring: Afro-Cuban music with deep strains of contemporary hard bop and funk, thoroughly infused with an indomitable spirit.","brand":"ALLIANCE ENTERTAINMENT LLC","offers":[{"title":"USA Supplier - 4-10 Days","offer_id":67795575210284,"sku":"al-805558280122","price":46.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0825\/5186\/5644\/files\/3806599-3034382.jpg?v=1794004765","url":"https:\/\/realgroovy.com\/products\/805558280122-diluvio","provider":"Real Groovy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
