Customer Reviews
amazing pianist
i've really been enjoying this c.d.,especially the rhythm section,but the piano is flawless.thank god ruben cut this album before he passed on. he is considered one of the top 3 pianists to ever come out of cuba.put this c.d. on,lite up a nice cigar,and it really transports you!!
Cuban Piano
Lots of latin, cuban style piano music.....similar to Bebos piano, if you like piano and good latin music for listening or dancing, this is it.
You're more familiar with Rubén González than you think
This is a brilliant album. You're more familiar with it than you think: I'm sitting here at my local Starbuck's and they're playing the CD in full, 11 years after its release. It's not a one-time occurrence: you hardly ever hear the contemporaneously released Buena Vista Social Club these days, but you hear "Introducing..." everywhere and all the time. González passed away in 2003 at age 84, but his legend only grows. As to why González was discovered by worldwide audiences so late in his life, well, there was the little matter of the Revolution and 37 or so lost and buried years (1959 to rediscovery in 1996).
