Free Music Review: Cuban Music with a NYC Attitude!
Hit: 5 Stars
This CD was given to me as a gift. What a gift! I'm Cuban and I know about my roots so as soon as I heard the opening chant to Elegua I knew this was the real deal. This CD pays homage to the West African roots of Afro-Cuban music and covers a lot of bases in a very interesting way. There is a variety of rhythms from my homeland like Mozambique, Songo, Guaguancó, Son Montuno, etc. but with a definite jazz aesthetic. A good example is a beautiful jazz-mambo called "Llegue" which pays homage to the Palladium ballroom in NYC which was the home of the mambo from 1948 till 1966. It even features the voice of the owner Maxwell Hyman! How do I know this? The extensive clear liner notes that are just as incredible as the music. For pure Latino jazzers there are tunes by Joe Henderson and Thelonius Monk that showcase the virtuosity of the players, especially Mr. Sanabria. There is even a jazz joropo(read the liner notes)and Puerto-Rican Plena tibute. I read that Sanabria is a Puerto-Rican from NYC but his Afro-Cuban chops on Drums and percussion are so good that I thought he and his band were from Cuba! Cuban music with a NYC attitude, I love it! Bravisimo mi hermano!
