lately ive gained a higher appreciation for world music especially latin, bossa nova, and other music in that area does anyone have any latin, latin jazz, bossa nova bands/artists, or anything around that that they would like to reccomend?

Malaguena's a pretty cool tune, for latin jazz. Manteca for groups. But I can't really say much else.

I really don't know any bands that play those explicitly. Try checking the net. You can find ANYTHING there. I once found a place you could by an old WWII Russian battle tank.

And I am partial to Bossa Nova myself, so if you find any good Bossa Nova bands, can ya' let me know? thanks.

Bossa Nova you cant go wrong with Antonio Carlos Jobim or Stan Getz

Latin jazz you could look into Poncho Sanchez there's a particular cd called Miami Jam that has some of the best latin artists in it like Poncho Sanchez, Arturos Sandoval Steve Turre and many more.

Tito Puente is one of the more accessible artists out there for latin jazz, too bad i never got to see him before he passed away.

look into Afro Cuban music too it's pretty awsome, Dizzy Gillespie did alot of that sort of music.

Malaguena, i think we played that in our concert band in 8th grade, i may be mistaken. Anyway, latin is awsome, Girl from Impanima (i dont know if i spellen that right) is the only thing i play with a bossa nova pattern and its 2/3 bossa nova. its fun eventhough i get lost easly.

I can't be of much help here, but I must say I share your appreciation for latin jazz and the like. Sac State over where I am has a pretty good latin group, and in my school's jazz ensemble Latin pieces were always fun for me, as a bassist.
