I feel like Zurbano spun us around the Rio Club in Havana. We were schooled with a soundtrack and I appreciate it so much. After hearing all that music I feel closer than ever to that island and it's culture. Bands I never heard of that I loved, like "New Generation"...La Timba music (I think). For the me the common denominator was that it all was swinging, man! And through every genre and generation, one thing stood out: mucho enthusiasmo! Viva Cuban music! Viva Open Source!
