Description
“Congo to Cuba” (2002) examines the connection between modern African music and Cuban styles that evolved from a slow-simmering cross-pollination of Spanish melodies and rhythms imported by homesick slaves. When Latin albums eventually found their way home to the Continent, local musicians immediately recognized the link and re-Africanized the tunes for their own markets. These versions then traveled back to the Caribbean, resealing the cultural circle and launching dozens of further permutations. This well-composed compilation shows how much Africa and Cuba have in common. It's a transatlantic journey - but you won't get seasick on this.
