It's the “Music Doesn't Lie” episode—feat. Latin/Jazz/Rock percussionist/composer Willie Martinez tawkin' bout meeting Afro-Cuban music legend Machito at 17, being a medium-sized fish in a big pond...and what it really takes to be a working musician.

With tunes from #FaniaAllStars, #Machito, #HectorLavoe and Willie's band #LaFamiliaSextet, and shoutouts to #EddyJoMartinez, #JonMartinez, #AndreMorton, #ShaunTGorman and #AngelaRogers.
