Free Music Review: You'll never tire of 'A Toda Cuba Le Gusta.'
Hit: 5 Stars
This CD features significant personnel overlap from the contemporaneous and (at the time) more popular 'Buena Vista Social Club' release. Like many on these pages, I enjoyed both compilations. But 10 years on, it's this one that still resonates. I can pull it out any time and re-discover the joys of its brassy, upbeat tunes. By contrast, my copy of 'Buena Vista' hasn't seen the light of day in years.
The signature tune here is "Habana Del Este." Those horn-centric riffs are intoxicating. In fact, it's still on heavy rotation at many of my local Starbuck's. You'll never tire of 'A Toda Cuba Le Gusta.'
A Toda Cuba Le Gusta Poster
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 BartlettInternational Music CDs
