What? Machito playing SOUL? The bad news is that there is nothing much to it except the cover of "Green Onions." The good news is that this is a fantastic cover.

Many have tried to do justice to the tune, but few if any have succeeded in matching the original.

Machito's version does not bend to the visceral and funky style of the MG's but instead zaps it into high-1960s "mod" or "now sound" territory.

It has snap, punch, power, and the period sound of such other "mod" monsters as "Soul Bossa Nova." DJs will love it, and the rest of the album will keep Machito fans scratching their heads in utter disbelief.
