Like most Putumayo samplers, CAF CUBANO offers a tastefully chosen introduction to the dazzlingly rich musical traditions of a culture that may not be immediately familiar to Western listeners. CAF CUBANO explores the caf music of Cuba, from sones to boleros to mambos to "nueva trova" (which marries folk styles to lyrical poems). Included on this compilation are the balladeer Armando Garzon, former Orchestra Reve vocalist Felix Baloy, and 1960s songwriter Pedro Luis Ferrer, making for a delightfully well-rounded sojourn into the musical world of Cuba.
