  • Monguito el No. 1 – Yo No Soy Mentiroso
    SAR 1979

    Monguito, voorkant

    Hier hebben we nog zo’n pracht plaat op SAR en geproduceerd
    door Roberto Torres. Monguito ‘el Unico’ is een van de mannen
    die er vanaf het begin bij waren. Toen de son montuno net was
    uitgevonden door de grote Arsenio Rodriguez was Monguito al
    op zijn album ‘Primitivo’ te horen. Één van de meest gedownloade
    elpees op deze pagina overigens. Arsenio heeft helaas niet meer
    kunnen meemaken hoe groot zijn creatie later nog zou worden.
    De grote meester overleed eind 1970. Monguito maakte nog
    vele platen, luister naar ‘Yo No Soy Mentiroso’.
    Ik lieg het niet..

    Today we’ve got us another wonderful album on SAR and produced
    by Roberto Torres. Monguito ‘el Unico’ is one of the guys who were
    there from the very beginning . When the great Arsenio Rodriguez
    had just invented ‘Son Montuno’, Monguito was already there and
    participated on ‘Primitivo’, one of the most downloaded albums at
    this page by the way. Arsenio didn’t live to know how big his sound
    became in a later stage unfortunately, he died in 1970. Monguito
    made a bunch of records later, listen to ‘Yo No Soy mentiroso’.
    I’m not lying..

    01 – Mi son, mi son
    02 – Punteame bien el tres

    Cumbelé, Descarga and Paseaíto are brought easily by this
    great band. I am crazy about the song ‘Hong Kong’, but the
    whole lp is a joy to listen to. A little scratchy but
    not too much. Get it and spread it as usual.

  • Arsenio Rodríguez – Primitivo
    Mas Records 1965

    Arsenio Rodríguez, front

    One of the key figures in latin music was this great man.
    Arsenio Rodríguez is considered father of the modern afro-cuban
    sound. His musical roots lay in the Congolese rituals of his
    family, instilled in him by his grandfather who was a slave,
    and it is said that he brought many of the toques used to
    adress deities into son. He was a predigious composer –
    his sones remain dominant in the repertoire – and his group,
    which he expanded with first congas and later an extra trumpet,
    more percussion and piano, became the most influential of the
    1940’s. Rodríguez also changed the structure of son, expanding
    the montuno with a descarga section of improvised solos.
    Arsenio Rodríguez ( 1911 – 1970 ) was blind from age eight,
    he was kicked by a horse. He was a superb tres player and one
    of Cuba’s all time great bandleaders and son composers. Arsenio
    grew up in a ‘solar’, a small neighbourhood community. It was his
    custom to play the guitar, his neighbours would join in both
    vocally and instrumentally, using sticks, pieces of chairs, boxes
    or anything they could find to create a musical sound. On such
    a night, someone used a cowbell as their contribution to this
    primitive music and it was from this that the cowbell evolved as
    part of the instrumentation of today’s Latin-American rhythm
    sections. ( Rough Guide and backsleeve )
    Congolese composer Grand Kalle was called the father of rumba,
    he became inspired by Cuban artists like Arsenio Rodríguez, so now
    we can see the circle close, afro-cuban getting round and round.
    tracks like Independence cha cha and Africa Boogaloo are typical
    examples, from Congo to Cuba and back,
    music works miracles don’t you think..
    listen to Arsenio Rodríguez,
    ( do we hear Monguito
    there ? )

    tracks;

    1 La pasion
    2 Me engañastes juana
    3 Lo que dice justi
    4 Rumba guajira
    5 Coplas de españa
    6 Que mala suerte
    7 Fiesta en el solar
    8 Me equivoque contigo
    9 A gozar mujeres
    10 No lo niegues
    11 El lema del guaguancó
    12 Guaguancó de puerta tierra

  • Eddie Palmieri y su Conjunto ‘la Perfecta’ El Molestoso
    Alegre Records 1963

    Eddie Palmieri, front

    This is the second lp by latin pianist Eddie Palmieri and his group
    ‘La Perfecta’. They were the originators of a sound called ’trombanga’,
    introducing two trombones and a flute instead of trumpets. This contributed
    a lot to their early sixties succes in the New York latin scene. Later it was
    also used by artists such as Willie Colon and Manny Oquendo among others.
    The vocals on this 1963 album are taken care of by Ismael Quintana. Enjoy..

    tracks;

    1   El molestoso
    2   Asi es la humanidad
    3   Lazaro y su microfono
    4   Contento estoy
    5   Sabroso guaguanco
    6   Yo sin ti
    7   Co un amor se borra otro amor
    8   En cadenas
    9   La gioconda
    10  No critiques

  • Conjunto Chappotín – Perlas del Son,Areito

    Conjunto Chappotín, front

    Conjunto Chappottín and his Stars was founded in 1950: African
    Cuban tres-guitarist, composer and bandleader, Arsenio Rodriguez,
    known as el Ciego Maravilloso, or the Marvelous Blind One, had settled
    in New York to recover his vision. He decided from there that his All Stars
    band, which he left in Cuba during his 1948 move to New York, should be
    transferred into the professional care of his first trumpetist, Felix Chappottín.
    From that moment, the original Arsenio Rodriguez All Stars band was
    transformed into Conjunto Chappottín y sus Estrellas. The group was Led by
    Felix Chappottín with Luis (Lili) Martinez Grinan as the arranger and Miguelito
    Cuni the lead singer. Under the leadership of Felix Chappottín, only to be
    compared with Louis Satchmo Armstrong, the band rose to international
    fame, moving and amusing dancers in different parts of the world.
    ( info from AfroCubaWeb )

    I bought this lp from a friend who used to collect Cuban music with passion.
    One day when he was in need of money, he sold me his entire collection
    with the idea to buy it back some other time. Unfortunately Dirk has left
    this world a couple of years ago. I am taking care of the music, keeping it
    together and sharing some of it with you, like today. Hope U like.

    I found that the same lp was also released with
    a different cover, as shown in small picture,
    don’t know which one was the original.

    tracks;

    1   Romance fatal
    2   Que se fuñan
    3   Cienfuegos tiene mi guaguanco
    4   Canto al monte
    5   Yo si como candela
    6   Nosotros los amalianos
    7   Jala la pata
    8   Pa bachatear
    9   Y del vedado que
    10  Yo soy tiburon
    11  Los jovenes de la defensa
    12  A bailar con la guajira

  • Carlos Embales – Septeto Nacional Ignacio Piñeiro
    Siboney / Egrem 1990

    Carlos Embales, front, cd size

    Most of time, Bolero is too sweet for my ears but Carlos Embales
    brings it with some little rough edges that make it exactly right.
    Embales is famous for his rumba but for this occasion he treats us
    with Bolero, Guaguancó, Pregón and Son, his beats are imbeatable.

    tracks;

    1 Me duele el corazon
    2 El final no Llegara
    3 Mayeya o no jueges con los santos
    4 Sola y triste
    5 La vida es una semana
    6 Coco may may
    7 Imperdonable
    8 Cardenas
    9 Llego el dulcerito
    10 Crei que era mia
    11 Llora como llore
    12 Tu, mi Afinidad
