Cuban Dance Party

Cuban Dance Party (1959) more music like this

by Bebo Valdés

This 1959 compilation of the maestro, Bebo Valdés, was recorded in Havana by Everest Records. The sound quality is exceptional since the stereo masters were used. With the onslaught of Cuban music, many CDs were released with less than dynamic sound reproduction. It is satisfying to hear the vibrant bottom and midrange in these classic recordings. ...

Bebo [Sony]

Bebo [Sony] (2006) more music like this

by Bebo Valdés

Veteran Cuban pianist Bebo Valdés, who has lived in Sweden since the '60s, is still a major player at the age of 88. On Bebo, he mostly plays ancient and traditional themes, many dating back to the 1800s. The repertoire, which predates ragtime and the development of many Latin rhythms, sometimes sounds like a mix between ragtime and the more ...

by Bebo Valdés

Todo Ritmo

Todo Ritmo (1992) more music like this

by Bebo Valdés y Su Orquesta

This album is another jewel from Bebo Valdés' Havana heyday. It is filled with classic mambo, cha cha, and bolero. The music is filled with the spirit of old Havana and one is taken right back in elegant style to the 1950s. "Mayajigua," a maniacal mambo, is an example of how this band could convincingly cook. "Persian Shah" is a cha cha filled ...

United Nations of Messidor

United Nations of Messidor (1996) more music like this

by Various Artists

An effective two-disc compilation of contemporary Latin music drawn from the catalog of German label Messidor Musik. The selections range from the highly traditional to the highly fused -- there are a lot of hybrid approaches on display here, giving rise to some spectacularly showy jazz-footed playing. Finger-popping, toe-tapping stuff, this, and ...

Sabor de Cuba

Sabor de Cuba (2007) more music like this

by Bebo Valdés

The father of Chucho Valdés, Bebo Valdés was a major bandleader and pianist in Cuba before moving to Mexico in 1960 and eventually on to Scandinavia. Most of his early recordings have long been obscure and out-of-print, making this reissue a very welcome event. Valdés is heard in Cuba during 1955-1960 and on one selection apiece in Haiti and ...
