Anima latina (Latin soul) is an album by the Italian singer-songwriter Lucio Battisti. It was released in December 1974 by Numero Uno. The album was arranged and produced by the lyricist Mogol and Battisti in its entirety, with performances by various semi-unknown musicians. It is considered one of Battisti's masterpieces for signalling a significant departure from his previous records. Anima latina was Italy's eighth best-selling album of 1975.

Legendary Detroit arranger, producer and guitarist Dennis Coffey released ‘Evolution’ in 1971 and sampled-heads will know the importance of the breakbeat funk of ‘Scorpio’ – much sampled in the hip-hop world, but also check the driving groove of ‘Getting It On’. The heavily percussive ‘Son Of Scorpio’ develops the theme while the funker ‘Theme From Enter The Dragon’ is classic 70s soundtrack action. The clavinet laced ‘Can You Feel It’ is also another highlight on a set that includes 11 bonus cuts mainly lifted from the ‘Electric Coffey’ LP as well as the ten that made up the original album.

Don't let the "rock" in the title fool you – as this is a jazz album all the way through, but one that has Japanese tenorist Takeru Muraoka taking on some of the hipper rock songs at the start of the 70s! Muraoka has this raspy, almost fuzzy tone at times – mixed with heavy drums, organ, and guitar – all with a fantastically powerful sound that reminds us of some of the grooviest work by Steve Marcus, Tom Scott, or John Klemmer during the same period – slight psychedelic currents, but always with a result that's more soulful than rockish – a very cool blend of elements that could have come from the Chess/Cadet studios at the end of the 60s. Titles include "Kozmic Blues", "Whole Lotta Love", "Never Can Say Goodbye", "Try", "Stranger To Himself", "It's Too Late", "Eli's Coming", and "Music For Gong Gong".
