Cuba: Music and Revolution: Culture Clash in Havana: Experiments in
Latin Music 1975-85 Vol. 2 is the new album compiled by Gilles
Peterson and Stuart Baker (Soul Jazz Records) that takes off in
exactly the same vein as the much-acclaimed Vol. 1 - exploring the
many styles that came out of Cuba in the 1970s as Latin and Salsa
mixed with heavy doses of Jazz, Funk, and Disco to create some of
the most dancefloor-friendly music every made!
The album comes as a heavyweight 3xLP set, complete with
extensive sleeve notes, and is jam-packed with heavy bass lines,
synth and Wah-Wah guitar funk combined with the heavyweight
percussion, powerful brass lines and the all-encompassing Latin
rhythms of Cuban music known throughout the world.
Much of the music on this album is featured in the deluxe large
format book ‘Cuba: Music and Revolution: Original Cover Art of
Cuban Music: Record Sleeve Designs of Revolutionary Cuba 1959-90’,
released by Soul Jazz Books and also compiled by Gilles Peterson
and Stuart Baker (Soul Jazz Records), featuring the music and
record designs of Cuba, made in the 30-year period following the
Cuban Revolution.
The music on this new album features a host of rarities from
legendary Cuban artists such as Los Van Van, alongside Grupo De
Experimentación, Farah Maria, Ricardo Eddy Martinez, Juan Pablo
Torres, Grupo Sintesis and Orquesta Riverside, most of whose names
remain largely unknown outside of Cuba but have long been favourite
club tracks and secret-weapons in Gilles Peterson and Stuart
Baker's record boxes!
The music on this album reflects the most cutting-edge of Cuban
groups that were recording in Cuba in the 1970s and 1980s – all
searching for a new Cuban identity and new musical forms reflecting
both the Afro-Cuban cultural heritage of a nation that gave birth
to Latin music - and its new position as a socialist state. Most of
the music featured on this album have never been heard outside of
Cuba.
