rumberos de cuba!! those guys are the one band today playing real rumba in habana...
yoruba andabo has great cd´s, but they are kind of "cojos" playing life...
the singer in rumberos de cuba is a real institution of rumba in cuba... Ernesto "El Gato" Gatell... his also de singer in lots of songs of tata guines and his is "fundador" de clave y guaguanco... lazaro rizo and maximino duqusne also used to play with tata... and well, what can anyone say about aspirina? that guy rocks de stage...
rumberos are finishing a second album, with no name yet, but it will come out in cuba around august...
and well my favorites will be muñequitos, tata guines, rumba profunda (no tradicional rumba, but more with contempo arregments, like the use of saxofon, bateria and bajo), papines, clave y guaguanco, mongo is a real master, but i dont think is the real rumba... anyway still is great...
also im looking for several cd´s where "el Gato" sings...
-clave y guaguanco, songs and dances
-afrekete
-hilario duran, killer tumbao (jazz)
-rapsodia rumbera
that´s all i can remember right now...
nos vemos
VIVA MEXICATIAHUI!!!
