Quote:
I was blown away by the sounds on this album. The guitar work is precision and dynamic. The lead vocals and backup are very soulful and well modulated. A very clean sound consisting of voice, guitar and percussion that is easy to listen to and yet is an emotional experience. The songs are mostly guajira, bolero, and son styles.
If you like Guillermo Portabales,this is it! It's all here. This is the best collection of his music that exists, and the quality of the remastered 50s/60s recordings is incredible rich and clear. I was turned on to him from listening to Cumbiamba at the end of the movie "The Doctor" starring William Hurt. When I heard that song, I knew I had to get more. This led me to Buena Vista Social CLub and Elidias Ochoa's cover of El Carretero. From there, I've been in love with Cuban music ever since. (From Amazon)
