The Latin Touch of Jimmy Namaro showcases the Canadian vibraphonist and percussionist in a set of Latinflavoured arrangements of popular standards, film themes, and lightjazz repertoire. Namaro long associated with Canadian lounge, television, and club circuits blends vibraphone, percussion, and rhythmsection backing into a polished, easylistening format typical of RCA Camdens Canadian issues.
The album mixes contemporary selections (Man of La Mancha, Call Me), classic standards (Over the Rainbow, Stranger in Paradise), and Latinstyled reinterpretations (St. Louis Blues Pachanga). Camdens CASseries pressings were budgetline 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 eras polished studiolounge aesthetic and Namaros reputation as a versatile instrumentalist.
