Our Take

Dive into the tropical sounds of Cuba with VARIOUS ARTISTS Essential Cuban Anthology, a compilation that promises to transport you to the sun-soaked streets of Havana. From the infectious rhythms of salsa to the soulful melodies of son, this album has it all.

First up, we have the classic track "Guantanamera" which sets the tone for the album with its lively percussion and uplifting vocals. It's impossible not to start dancing as soon as this song comes on.

Next, we have the smooth sounds of Buena Vista Social Club's "Chan Chan," a song that oozes charm and sophistication. The intertwining guitars and gentle vocals create a sense of nostalgia that will have you yearning for a mojito on a hot summer's day.

Moving on, we have the energetic tune "Candela" by Ibrahim Ferrer, which is guaranteed to get your hips shaking and your feet tapping. The bold brass section and frenetic rhythm make this track a standout on the album.

Overall, VARIOUS ARTISTS Essential Cuban Anthology is a delightful collection of music that celebrates the vibrant culture of Cuba. So grab a cigar, pour yourself a rum cocktail, and let the music whisk you away to the colourful streets of the Caribbean. This album is a must-listen for anyone who loves to embrace the joy and passion of Cuban music.
