You may recall that I included "Mambo a la Tito" by Tito Puente on BFT 69, from a British compilation CD, "Carnival", which has no year of recording information or musican credits.

I asked for any help identifying the song by year or album, so that I could figure out who played the notable baritone saxophone solo.

I have now positively identified this song as the opening cut on Tito Puente's 1968 album on Tico Records, "20th Anniversary". I ordered the CD of "20th Anniversary" to get the musician credits. The CD packaging has no musician credits. I have viewed online scans of two different back covers of the "20th Anniversary" LP, and there are no musician credits.

I have sent out inquiries about the musicians on "20th Anniversary" to noted Latin music experts. If I get an answer, I will post it.
