Just picked this one up. Some really amazing tunes on it. The great Nino Rivera, who played tres guitar. I posted another one of his records, recorded much later, a few posts back. This is a rare one. You can find it occasionally, as well as on CD. But the original Panart recording is really something.
 

With Milt Jackson on vibes, Budd Johnson on tenor, Norris Turney on flute, Norman Simmons on piano, Ted Sturgis on bass, and Eddie Locke on drums...
