I was going to listen to some Jazz from a Latin American country and it suddenly occured to me that there were lots of countries whose jazz I'd never heard before so I typed in the first one that came to me, one bordering the country I originally thought of and this is the first thing that came up in a search for "Uruguay Jazz."   The piece is by Ruben Rada who I read is a legendary musician and artist in Uruguay, nice to be reminded the internet can be useful.   

The group is Suena Candombe.   I will probably be listening to them this weekend and, if I can find them,  the musicians playing in another context. 

Here they are playing Nombre de Bienes
