    I've only read the summary so will reserve judgement until I've downloaded and read it.

For me Diz played jazz with a Cuban tinge, but he never had a band that played in clave or had more than 1 Latin percussionist (e.g. a timbales player). On saying that, of course Chano's compositions were written in clave so maybe 1 or 2 of them as recorded by Diz could pass as Latin jazz.

    However I suspect Machito and/or someone else recorded something that could pass as Afro-Cuban jazz prior to 1947.

    Maybe the author deals with all this in his thesis. I'll try to read it tomorrow.
