Product description
Oh dear, Santiago De Cuba La Reina Del Son is like a forgotten love letter found at the bottom of a dusty record crate. This various artists compilation takes us on a journey through the infectious rhythms and soulful melodies of Cuban son music. But does it reign supreme as the queen of son? Well, let's dig into this musical treasure trove and find out. From the opening track, "La Reina de la Rumba" by Los Muñequitos de Matanzas, we are transported to the bustling streets of Santiago De Cuba, where the music flows like rum at a carnival. The energy is infectious, the percussion is fierce, and the vocals are as smooth as silk. But as we delve deeper into the album, we start to feel like we're stuck in a never-ending salsa loop. Tracks like "Son Para Ti" by Eliades Ochoa and "El Buena Vista" by Orquesta Buena Vista Social Club offer some respite, but overall, the lack of variety leaves us yearning for more. That being said, there are some real gems hidden within this musical mosaic. "Guajira" by Compay Segundo is a toe-tapping delight, while "Son de la Loma" by Ibrahim Ferrer is a masterclass in vocal delivery. And let's not forget the electrifying guitar work on "Son De La Malanga" by Los Van Van. In conclusion, Santiago De Cuba La Reina Del Son may not be the undisputed queen of son, but it's certainly a royal affair worth experiencing. So grab your dancing shoes and prepare to be swept away by the infectious rhythms of Cuban music.
