Differences Between Son Montuno and Boogaloo. Videos.

Gracias a Bobby Sanabria
Proffesor, we all want to learn more about the cuban music that is so diverse, can you share with us your knowledge and explain to all of us the differents between this arrangement and the hispanic ‘’Boogaloo’’ from 1966 please. I will let this conversation on my wall
that way we all learn more about this topic. Thank you for your help proffesor Bobby Sanabria.

For example this music theme recoreded in 1966 is not a ‘’Boogaloo’’
is a Son montuno’’ the choirs repeating ‘’Boogaloo’’ with small seccions of the claps and pandeiro some times over the claps, what is the different?, we all wanna know the differents of this son montuno and why they call it Boogaloo only because of those smalls seccion of this claps beats.
What is the different between that ‘’Son montuno of Pete rodríguez and this son montuno recoreded in 1960 for the cuban pianist René Touzet?
 only the slaps and pandeiro, that's it. I heard you to said in an interview that small sections of a beats don’t change the rhythm, you said that in the 70’s musicians used to add parts of the ''bomba sica’ but it was in small sections and that is not enough to change the the son montuno rhythm or cubans rhythm. Bobby.

   First off the word "Boogaloo" comes from African American culture. It was a term used down south referring to Rhythm & Blues music (R & B). Latin Boogaloo is a fusion of R & B and Cuban rhythms developed in NYC in the mid 60s. The rhythms that were most used were the cha-cha-cha-cha, guajira, and son montuno which were used for the style with English lyrics on top oand/or with chords structures that come from the blues and R & B. Occasionally they would add a tambourine on beats 2 & 4 and hand clapping. That Pete Rodriguez tune is just a guaracha with the coro using the word "boogaloo" in it. Unfortunately because of the fad, many artists would just interject the word "boogaloo" in any type of tune (as in this one) to cash in on the fad. The first tune that one could say is a Latin Boogaloo is Mongo Santamaria's version of Herbie Hancock's "Watermelon Man."

The next tune in the style that could be considered Latin Boogallo is "Lookie Lookie" by Ricardo Ray

   Lookie lookie is a slow tempo ‘’Guajira son'’ with soul, it change in the minute 1:51 to a fast tempo, sung in English, it look pretty much the same to Walfredo’s theme Guantanamera. Proffesor can you explain for all of as the different beetwen this Ricardo Ray tune Lookie Lookie 1966 and the walfredo’s tune Guantanamera 1961, we all wanna learn more about this topic and this tune Guantanamera
