Description
It all started, as so many worthwhile ventures do, over drinks in the local pub. This was where Peter Noble of Aim Records and Jesus Alemany first discussed the idea of a new Cubanismo album. It was fitting that Havana Club Anejo & Coke was the drink of choice that evening, the only surprise was the location - half way round the world from Havana - Byron Bay, Australia.
It was agreed to record in Cuba's premier state-of-the-art studio, Abdala Studios in Havana. Which indeed was where this 14-piece ensemble led by Jesus Alemany (trumpet, flugelhorn) created this joyously infectious album.
