Celebrating "The King of Latin Jazz" Tito Puente w/ Tito Puente Jr

Drums and Rums

This podcast was taped on 2/2/24 at Gamirey Studios.
I never got the opportunity to see Tito Puente perform live, but I caught Tito Puente Jr at one of his shows put on by the Jazz Society of Palm Beach. Tito Jr. embodies his father's performance with the same energy while sharing the story of his father. We got a chance to sit down at Gamirey Studios in Miami. He shared great stories about growing up the son of the Latin king, his dad's early music journey and the influence he had on not just Latin musicians, but all musicians.
We also put him through, In Four Beats or Less:
1. Who’s on your Mt Rushmore of drummers?
2. Favorite venue you’ve played?
3. Traditional or match grip?
4. 4. Which social media drummer do you follow?
This might be up there on the top of all of the podcasts I've done.
Also I want to give a shout out to fellow podcaster and musician Brad Brock for helping with the video and audio for this one.
