Perfect, just perfect, a must own!.......2004-01-06

Seldom have I heard a CD and immediately thereafter just had to own it. It took me weeks to find this CD. (Thank heavens for the internet). Cuban music is, of course, in short supply not based on quality but rather based on availability. Another casualty of our less than perfect international political skills (which Washington brain said ... lets get rid of Batista and get a new government into Cuba that we can work with...). But this is not about politics, this is about artistic brilliance.

I first heard this CD at a club in Miami. I was blown away. If you have even the most remote interest in jazz, in latin music, or piano this is a must have! If you have a passing interest in Cuban music start here. And if you are a expert you'll love the absolute brilliance as you are offered up latin jazz by piano in an extraordinary range.

Roberto Fonseca can simply be described as an undiscovered master with remarkable talent. Undiscovered only if you do not realize he is the new piano giant of the Buena Vista Social Club. At age thirty, he towers over the BVSC seniors. Fonseca plays, he composes, he overwhelms. This CD illustrates his propensity for musical innovation. He has a unique latin style. A piano master, be assured he is destined to be the next superstar in latino music. This is an insight into true cuban music magic (and I don't speak a word of spanish)!. If Fonseca was born in Hartford instead of Havana you'd be hearing terms like "prodigy" and you'd be reading about him on the Billboard charts instead of Amazon Reviews. Our loss in not trading with the Castro "commies" is more than those great cigars. If Fonseca toured the US he'd play to sell out crowds. This is a special musical genre delivered by a special musical genius.
