Jonny Trunk's quirky Brixotica series has previously showcased some brilliantly camp and - more importantly - musically delicious British takes on South American and African music from the easy listening era. This latest instalment sees the lauded crate-digger turn his attention to UK-made Latin music from the ballroom era. An almost non-stop celebration of big band cha-cha-cha, rumba and mambo, the compilation boasts all manner of overlooked treats from the likes of Johnson Brothers & Ted Heath (the tongue-in-cheek silliness of "Papa Loves Mambo"), Don Carlos, Victor Sylvester, Tony Scott and the John Warren Orchestra. There's also a wonderful bonus in the shape of an excerpt from a little known cha-cha-cha instructional record.
