This two-fer from Collectables features a pair of out of print Herbie Mann LPs: Right Now and Latin Fever, both originally issued on Atlantic in 1962. Highlights among the 19 tracks include "Jumpin' With Symphony Sid," "You Came a Long Way from St. Louis," and "Groovy Samba," which are pleasant, but not essential. ~ Al Campbell
