Kai Olé
Kai Olé is an album by jazz trombonist and arranger Kai Winding recorded in 1961 for the Verve label. Reception. The Allmusic review by Tony Wilds observed "Before Herb Alpert provided the hit transition from Latin brass to mod brass, Winding made this deluxe gatefold mod/Latin/jazz album. Surprisingly, Latin percussion yields him a lot more freedom than the yet more rigid big beat of the later, near-rock, mod sound. ..."Kai Ole" uniquely explores a new area of Latin jazz but never quite reaches critical mass".
