It is good! Didn't know much about him until I picked up the album and thought, "This looks like it's worth a shot for $1.88." Vinyl is very good.... Apparently he was pretty active as a sideman from the early fifties until the mid-seventies. He's still alive. His discography as a leader is pretty sparse.I love this Gildo Mahones! Blues for Yna Yna is a favorite...
