Siboney by Ernesto Lecuona: Cuban Masterpieces (piano)

rickegee says...

Still struggling for that vote.

A good Ruben Gonzalez story:

Gonzalez had thought he had retired in 1996, when US guitarist Ry Cooder asked him to join in the Buena Vista Social Club recordings. Despite suffering from arthritis and being too poor to own a piano at the time, he was said to be overjoyed, and every morning waited outside the studio before it opened. The pianist so impressed Cooder and co-producer Nick Gold that he was persuaded to record the solo album Introducing Ruben Gonzalez.
