JUAN PABLO TORRES- "SON QUE CHEVERE" (A COOL SON), December 10, 2000
This review is from: Son Que Chevere (Audio CD)
Cuba's master trombonist Juan Pablo Torres has a great classic here. In this album, Torres stays away from fusion and concentrates in cuban "son" rhythms, which are guaranteed to delight his fans and all afro-cuban music lovers. Torres has "returned" to record with his old Havana veteran musician buddies, like master "baterista" Jose Luis "Changuito"Quintana, and "Tata"Guines on congas. Also featured in this CD are luminaries, like master saxophonist Javier Zalva, a veteran of Havana's Cubanismo recording sessions, tres guitar veteran player and sonero Aldo del Rio, sonero/bolerista singer Lazaro Reyes, "Albita-like" singer Maria Elena Lazo, Emilio del Monte and Changuito on "pailas", Jorge Reyes on bass, Tony Perez and Nelson Picallos on piano, Jesus el Quino on bongoes and cowbell and chorus by Juan Pablo Torres himself, Maria Elena Lazo and Elsa Torres. The songs on this unbeatable compilation are superbly arranged and make you want to dance. A great comeback to the Cuban scene by Juan Pablo Torres! Don't miss it!
