Jerry Gonzalez - Ya Yo Me Cure

Jerry Gonzalez is a trumpeter and conga player who plays jazz with a Latin accent. He played with Eddie Palmieri early in his career. He led the Fort Apache Band with his brother Andy for many years and has recently found kindred spirits among Spain's flamenco performers.On his first recording back in 1979, he started his album with a reenactment of a folkloric healing service in the studio. "Ya Yo Me Cure" as best as I can figure means "I've been healed". The whole sound of the performance is triumphant and hugely energetic.If anyone can translate the Spanish, you'd increase my understanding of the proceedings.
