 Bataan Death March - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bataan Death March was a war crime involving the forcible transfer of prisoners of war, with wide-ranging abuse and high fatalities, by Japanese forces in the Philippines, in 1942, after the three-month Battle of Bataan, which was part of the Battle of the Philippines (1941-42), during World War II.

Several of the few remaining Bataan prisoners await the competitors to congratulate them on their success of the grueling march, however the real thanks comes from the participants to those who actually endured the actual march and encampment at Cabanatuan.

 Dusty Groove America - Latin CD
During the early 60s, Alegre Records had the genius idea of getting together some of the strongest instrumental talents on the New York scene, and letting them open up in a relaxed studio setting that was quite different than the more tightly-crafted Latin sessions that were the norm for the time.
In the late 60s, New York was on top of the Latin Soul sound -- blending together bits from Puerto Rican and African-American roots to come up with a whole new sound.
The energy of the set is amazing -- as some of New York's greatest Latin artists of the time rock the house in front of a crowd of 80,000 Africans -- creating a cultural exchange that should have made the State Department blush.
