【拉丁爵士】Xavier Cugat沙维尔·库加爵士乐队1989年专辑《Ritm'O》  （MP3/320K）












“A native of Girona, Spain, Cugat emigrated with his family to Cuba in 1905.
Trained as a classical violinist, he played with the Orchestra of the Teatro
Nacional in Havana at the age of 12. Emigrating to the United States, sometime
between 1915 and 1918, he quickly found work accompanying an opera singer. At
the height of the tango craze, in 1918, Cugat joined a popular dance band, the
Gigolos. His involvement with the group, however, was brief. As the popularity
of the tango faded, he took a job as a cartoonist for The Los Angeles Times.
Cugat returned to music in 1920, forming his own group, the Latin American Band.
Although they played regularly at the Coconut Grove in Los Angeles and supplied
the soundtracks for several musical shorts, the group had its greatest success
after moving to New York and became the house band for the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.
Despite being criticized for their middle-of-the-road approach, Cugat remained
committed to his commercial-minded sound. He later explained, "I would rather
play 'Chiquita Banana' and have my swimming pool than play Bach and starve."
Cugat and his orchestra remained at the hotel for 16 years. Beautiful women were
consistently featured in Cugat's band. After helping Rita Hayworth launch her
career, he appeared in her film You Were Never Lovelier. Cugat's recordings of
the 1950s featured the singing of his third wife, Abbe Lane. In the mid-'60s,
he featured his fourth wife, Charo, who he billed as a "folksinger." Upon his
retirement in 1970, Cugat returned to Spain. He died in Barcelona on October 27,
1990. His band, which was led by Tito Puente following his retirement, continued
to perform under the direction of dancer, musician, and vocalist Ada Cavallo. ~
