4	Casa De La Trova (1999) more music like this by Various Artists Titled after the community centers where Cuban trovadores (troubadours) gather to sing poetic serenades, the Casa de la Trova collection gathers 14 such serenades by important Cuban songwriters from throughout the 20th century, performed by an all-star group of current practitioners of the form. Musical contributors present include Daniel ... see all copies from $17.48!
5	Before Night Falls (2001) more music like this by Original Soundtrack The soundtrack to Before Night Falls, Julian Schnabel's passionate, critically acclaimed portrait of Cuban writer Reinaldo Arenas, features an equally compelling collection of Cuban music. Ranging from the Cuban big band of Beny More's "Conoci La Paz" and "El Canonero" to the provincial sounds of Faustino Oromas' "El Tumbaito," the album digs just ... see all copies from $3.08! new only from $13.78!
6	Sentimiento (2005) more music like this by Omara Portuondo Part of Escondida's Cuban Essentials series of compilations, Sentimiento rounds up 15 generally excellent Omara Portuondo songs of varying styles, most of them previously compiled on Roots of Buena Vista: La Novia del Filin. The songs were published anywhere from the early '70s to 1996, but this is timeless music -- so timeless, in fact, that ... see all copies from $14.69! new only from $14.69!
7	Cemeteries & Desire (2005) more music like this by Juan-Carlos Formell Count Juan-Carlos Formell's perfectly beautiful Cemeteries & Desire among those albums that, though foreign, requires no translation -- to play this disc is to fall swooningly, unblinkingly in love with it. No previous experience with Cuban music is needed, though the ability to discern its many flavors aids a listener in justifying the praise it ... see all copies from $5.99! new only from $5.99!
8	Best of Buena Vista (2006) more music like this by Omara Portuondo see all copies from $1.99! new only from $1.99!
9	A Buena Vista: Barrio de la Habana (2000) more music like this by Luis Frank Presents Soneros de Verdad This album might have been made to jump on the Buena Vista Social Club bandwagon, but it's one of those rare imitations that takes on a life of its own. Singer Luis Frank, the mastermind behind it, is a young vocalist with a big voice and a love of the older music. And though, for the most part, these aren't old songs, but new ones dressed up in ... see all copies from $6.18!
10	Al Bate (2000) more music like this by Ñico Saquito see all copies from $14.98! new only from $14.98!
11 view cover	Lion Is Loose (1995) more music like this by Cuarteto Patria Ochoa and his group have the quality without which all else is conversation: they play the classic son as if they'd just thought of it. Ochoa is a superb guitarist with the true richness of simplicity, and more yet he's a gorgeous singer with the delicately earthy voice that marks the great soneros of the past. This is a phemomenally beautiful ... see all copies from $2.95!
12 view cover	Cuba: The Trova (1998) more music like this by Trio Yagua Before Afro-Cuban music was embraced by Puerto Ricans and came to be called salsa -- before Beny More, Tito Puente, Machito, Xavier Cugat and Tito Rodriguez led large dance orchestras -- Cuba was known for the trova. Playing an abundance of ballads, Cuban trovadores favored simplicity and went for small, minimalist groups. Some of the early ... see all copies from $14.47! new only from $14.47!

15 view cover	Good-Bye Mr. Cat (1982) more music like this by Nico Saquito Saquito was the driving force of the great son trio Los Guaracheros de Oriente. He last recorded in 1982, backed by some truly wonderful string-picking. His voice had faded slightly -- after all, he was in his 80s. But both he and his backup have a rarely surpassed charm and flair. Down-home without raunch, masterly without flash, this is some ... see all copies from $14.44!
16 view cover	Sextetos Cubanos "Sones, Vol. 2" (1995) more music like this by Various Artists These early records from four sextetos range from the illustrious Nacional and Boloña to the equally fine but less known Matancero (led by the great Isaac Oviedo), and Occidente -- a rarity in that one of its lead singers was a woman. All are prime, though Occidente is a little weaker than the rest, but more important all have the tart and ... see all copies from $15.30! new only from $15.30!
17 view cover	Cubafrica (1998) more music like this by Cuarteto Patria & Manu Dibango This CD opens with a veritable chestnut, the Mexican "Cielito Lindo," played by an African saxophonist and a Cuban son ensemble. The vocals are a bit hokey, yet it works. The idea to get together and record disparate material was born at a gig in France in 1996, and the studio was arranged tout de suite . Dibango plays with restraint, sinuously ... see all copies from $28.07!

21 view cover	Putumayo Presents: Cafe Cubano (2008) more music like this by Various Artists Moving along their trail of café music from around the world, Putumayo put together a compilation of relaxed, sentimental Cuban music that packs a pretty serious punch. There are a few heavy hitters on the album, but very few will have any name recognition outside of a few dedicated aficionados. After an opening track from Miami-based Jose Conde, ... see all copies from $13.37! new only from $13.37!
