ABAKUA,
I recently got the same hard to find cd, and it is some beautiful stuff, good buy Abakua,
It features the late Pancho Quinto as you said, playing his adaptation of Guarapachanguero on Rumba Bolero track #7 i believe, my favorite song, the singing is great (Ernesto Gatel), you can't ask for more...it's one of my favorite cd's, plus you can hear a young lucumi, tearing it up, well played, and also informative cause you get the gamut of rhythms from lucumi, to palo, to abakua, to afrekete (arara)...and the rumba's...
enjoy...
On a side note, another cd to cop (if you haven't already) is Rumberos De Cuba cd, with Maximino, Marquito, Mario Aspirina on quinto, El Gato singing, plus others....
