CUBA (IBRAHIM FERRER and the SOUL JAZZ "MUSIC AND REVOLUTION... EXPERIMENTS IN LATIN MUSIC" series)
As we said in The Groove on March 29th, 2014,
"All true disco music can be traced back to three Caribbean Islands: Cuba, Hispaniola, and Jamaica..."Cuba nunca es subestimada.."
Many sources have suggested that the French Caribbean and Brazil should be included in that list because of the importance of BEGINE, SOCA, SAMBA, and eventually BOSSA NOVA. Some of those sources suggest that all LATIN MUSIC is DISCO. We are not in total agreement to that.
We have insisted that the first authentic DISCO is a Congolese fusion of Cuban music with various local variations. If that is to believed then Cuban Music is still an extremely important source for the creation of most DISCO music variations.
Much of the music featured in this show is from the 'Cuba: Music And Revolution (Culture Clash In Havana Cuba....)' series presented by the British Soul Jazz label. Most of that music released between 1973 and 1985.
We also are presenting many songs sung by the late IBRAHIM FERRER, a member of the legendary BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB.
