Believe it or not, this Argentinean-born saxophonist spent his early years playing in the jazz avant-garde with the likes of Don Cherry. But for all his freeform experiments, "The Cat" hit his stride with this pristine piece of seminal pop jazz. His emotional, warm-blooded playing, gritty-sweet tone and Latin-laced grooves slide down smooth and easy. Covers of Santana's "Europa (Earth's Cry, Heaven's Smile)" and Marvin Gaye's "I Want You" remain faithful to the originals' vibe, yet take on a seductive Spanish accent thanks to Barbieri's expressive tenor and a battery of Latin percussion. Elsewhere, hip-swiveling rhythms and tuneful arrangements of cuts like "Fiesta," Behind The Rain" and "Los Desperados" simply simmer. Drummer Lenny White kicks down a rock solid beat, percussionists Ralph MacDonald and Mtume add the spice that's funky & nice, and producer Herb Alpert (of Tijuana Brass, and the "A" in A&M Records) polishes the proceedings to a glossy sheen with colorful orchestrations and silky strings.
