Customer Reviews
Understated treasure
Slightly downtempo in feeling when compared to other _Buena Vista Social Club_ CDs I know. This isn't a bad thing; Omara Portuondo's sumptuous voice is at its best when she's not in a hurry.
Aside from Omara's intoxicating singing, the instrumental arrangements on this album have a cleaner and more spare sound than on other albums in the BVSC series. The players' restraint and sensitivity match her voice perfectly. There's a great deal on this album that doesn't call attention to itself, but that's well worth the time to get to know. A profoundly satisfying work.
A GEM!
The Buena Vista Social Club is one of Cuba's gems. Omara is one of its stars!
Sensual, Smoky and Moody.
There are very few songs that can do what nearly every single song on this CD can do for me. You know how sometimes a song taps into some hidden or undeveloped part of who you are? Well, for me, with the exception of one or two songs here, this CD transports me to a different level. I really can't articulate it any better than that. After I listen to it, I just sashay around the house (when I used to walk). I think I'm going to go and put on something slinky now!
