| Professional Review: |
| Ry Cooder's name has helped bring attention to this session, but it's the veteran Cuban son musicians who make this album really special. Reminiscent of Ellington in its scope and sense of hushed romanticism, Buena Vista Social Club is that rare meld of quietude and intensity; while the players sound laid-back, they're putting forth very alive music, a reminder that aging doesn't mean taking to bed. Barbarito Torres's laoud solo on "El Cuarto de Tula" is both more blinding and more tasteful than any guitar showcase on any recent rock album; a quote from "Stormy Weather" and some very distinct parallels to Hawaiian styles remind us of why it's called "world music." --Rickey Wright |

 Written on February 2, 2007 Summary: Ry Cooder With All Star Cuban Band All done in Spainish, this excellent CD has a book included with translations and facts about the players. The music here oozes with atmosphere, taking you to the heart of Cuba. First rate musicianship and great songs all the way through. Ry leaves the vocals to various others, but his guitar work is unmistakably present. A good veiw indeed! Written on January 16, 2007 Summary: Buena Vista Social Club Classic For those of you who are fans of the Buena Vista Social Club already, this is the masterpiece. A culmination of talented musicians, soul, love, and sultry afternoons with a cool drink getting ready to kick on into the night! For those of you who have never listened to this style of music, don't just listen to it once as you could compare it to the first 3 olives you have ever eaten. The first one shocks your taste with a layered complexity that is both sharp and mellow, leaving you with a look on your face that says "what just happened?". The second takes you back to the memory of your first taste, and enjoying re-living the sensation, you start looking for more. The third confirms your interests and instils an infatuation with something unique, powerful, and good for the heart and soul, that will be played over and over again. Written on January 11, 2007 Summary: Absolutely fantastic! Michael Fletcher reviewed this CD spot-on. And I concur with the review that it is magical--it is indeed that. I can listen to it over and over at work or at home! It seems to suit almost any mood and simply nourishes the soul. I highly recommend for anyone who enjoys good music--you don't even need to be a fan of Cuban music. I certainly am not well versed in Latin music, but am a definite fan of this album!  Written on January 10, 2007 Summary: have no idea about it Amazon still feeds me with promises about sending me this DVD Audio. Since October 2006... I expect Ray Cooder is back to studio to play this DVD especialy for me. Regards. Written on December 9, 2006 Summary: Just nice This album is a gem. Very vibrant stuff, to the musicians, thank you for having this passion. I thought i heard an out of tune guitar string here, and there, but nothing that would change the outcome. |
