Buena Vista Social Club

This is a fabulous recording. Lovely songs by an older generation of Cuban singers. They come from varied backgrounds, and have wonderful stories to tell. I first got the Audio CD from the Public Library, and then ended up purchasing the DVD. The DVD is a simple documentary that has interviews with the singers, interspersed with shots of Cuba, and with recordings of their performance in studio and concert settings.

Thank you, Ry Cooder, for bringing to light this great music.
