Candido Fabre y su Banda – Cubano Soy (Tumi, 2006)
The album opens with a son/conga, rocking, insistent and full of joy. Fabré`s voice, hoarse, like he`s been smoking for the last 40 years, is soon surrounded by a woman`s coro and the party starts. One of the handful of great bands from Santiago de Cuba, Fabré`s group sounds local, and good. It`s country a bit, and not as cool as music from Havana, but it makes up for any loss by its sheer swing and drive. There`s some weird stuff here – he wonders why Celia Cruz never came back to Cuba – but that doesn`t break up the driving forward motion of the band. Highly Recommended. (review by Descarga)
