Puerto Rican Bassist Sammy Morales Recreates Stories, Tales and Songs
For Latin Jazz Network, Wiibert Sostre wrote: “Sammy Morales has been for years, one of the most respected musicians in the Puerto Rico music scene, and a bassist with vast experience playing with some of the most recognized pop artists in the island. Morales’ distinct, sharp bass sound carries the melodies in “El Reposo”, a piece with influences of smooth jazz and funk, with similarities to the music of Bob James. Morales always display a sixth sense for timing, rhythm and harmonic structure that creates a balance in his playing. Already known as one of the best bassist in Puerto Rico, with the storytelling compositions of “Historias, Cuentos y Canciones”, Morales reveals himself as an accomplished composer and arranger.”
