Angel Melendez and his 911 Big Band doin’ “Puente”

 
If you didn’t get a chance to go to Humboldt Park for the Puerto Rican Fest you missed a good one. Angel Melendez brought out the Caddy today when he came with the big band. This band is one of Chicago’s best and rightfully so. The theme of the mini-concert was “Tito Puente.” The band played mostly Puente big band standards with snappy solos by talented percussionists and an awesome solo by his saxophonist. If you didn’t see the band on Saturday (June 18th 2011) make sure you catch a concert in the near future. Nice job Angel.
