Gibbons was a student of Tito Puente, born in New York to Puerto Rican parents, Puente was a master of Latin jazz and mambo music, and from him Gibbons learned the rhythms played on congas, bongos and timbales. This influence is at the heart of Perfectamundo, Gibbons’s first solo record, on which he’s backed by The BFG’s, a collection of musicians with roots in Puerto Rico, Cuba, Argentina and the US.
