Review by Christy Bharath

Viva Watusi, the album by Ray Barretto, is a vibrant and energetic fusion of Latin and African rhythms. The album features a range of instruments, including congas, timbales, trumpets, saxophones, and pianos, all coming together to create a unique and dynamic sound.

Barretto's mastery of the congas is evident throughout the album, as he leads the rhythm section with precision and passion. The tracks are filled with infectious beats and grooves that will have listeners tapping their feet and moving to the music.

The album opens with the title track, "Viva Watusi," a lively and upbeat tune that sets the tone for the rest of the album. Other standout tracks include "El Watusi," "Soul Drummers," and "A Deeper Shade of Soul," each showcasing the different influences and styles that make up Barretto's sound.
