Personnel and aftermath

The Big Band of Rogues is a pseudonym or stagename for Tokyo Cuban Boys Jr., a band based on the Latin Jazz Big-Band, the Tokyo Cuban Boys. The Big Band of Rogues has been touring as the Tokyo Cuban Boys (without the Jr.) since at least 2005.

Coincidentally, Luis Valle, who recorded Trumpet parts for the Mario Kart 8 soundtrack a decade later, would go on to officially join this band.
