I would say....kind of.

There's the obvious tango thing going on, and the old Ragtime cats - like Jelly Roll - living in New Orleans around the turn-of-the-century would certainly have come in contact with Cuban and Central/South American musicians.

So...sure, it's in the early stages, but the Latin influence is definitely there.

[This is such a great movie, eh!]
