Irresistible

James Reese Europe, identified in Schuller's Early Jazz as a major transitional figure in the pre-history of jazz on the East Coast, also recorded a tango, entitled "Irresistible." It's interesting to hear since its an early example of how jazz music was always connected to "Latin" music. From the "Latin" section of "St. Louis Blues" to a variety of other examples, early jazz was cognizant of Cuban, Mexican, Argentine, and Caribbean musical influences.
