Product Description

From Amazon.com

A rousing ensemble recording, A Todo Cuba Le Gusta features a band made up largely of Cuban music elders. As a reflection of their collective experience playing multiple percussion instruments and brightly lit trumpets, the Afro-Cuban All Stars churn with high drama, even while playing music that's paced with extravagant patience. The time signatures overlay and run against each other in a casual trot while the trumpets blare with fat fullness. Add to that the impassioned group vocals and you've got a hard-to-beat Cuban traditional music session. --Andrew Bartlett

Album Description

Capturing the sound of the legendary soñeros of the 1950s golden age of Cuban big band music, A Toda Cuba Le Gusta was recorded in just six days and nights at the same time as the Buena Vista Social Club sessions. Bold and brassy, this is exhil

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended only if you're in one of these two categories..., April 7 2003

This review is from: A Toda Cuba Le... (Audio CD)
Honestly, I can think only of two groups of people who will enjoy this recording, and if you're in either group, I urge you to order it immediately if not sooner.

If you're one of those totally or mostly unfamiliar with Cuban jazz, you'll love this. It's a celebration of life, full of good humor and vigor. The excitement of the music is bound to get to you, and you'll wonder why you've never given it a chance before.

On the other hand, you might be quite familiar with this sound, with the vocals of veterans such as Ibrahim Ferrer, Pio Leyva, Manuel 'Puntillita Licea, Raul Planas, Jose Antonio 'Maceo' Rodriguez, and Felix Valoy, and with the full sound of trumpets, teombones, enhanced by sax, flute, and piano. If so, you'll find this the best you've heard, and will insist on its being in your collection.

If you're in neither group, well, what can I say?

This review is from: A Toda Cuba Le... (Audio CD)
This definitely is an album that is full of life! If you love music this indeed needs to be in your collection of albums. You can hear the warmth of Cuba in the sounds and rhythms of the tracks.

If you aren't having the brightest of days it will lift you out of any kind of 'blue' mood you might be in.

Buyt it!
