BigBro, I never knew that Denny started in a Latin band! Wow that's cool. Latin is definitely borrowed from in many exotica arrangements for sure. Actually if you listen to Bahia by Arthur Lyman, they break into a cha cha cha pattern and someonebyells "vaya". Very Latin influenced indeed.

Lots of latin going on it exotica....guiro, bongos, congas, timbales...that's just percussion instruments alone, then there is cha cha, bossa, and other rhythms, as well as the tunes they covered.

Yes, Exotica owes alot to Latin music.
