Alfredo Rodríguez CD Review
Adalberto's US Tour Dates
Things are solidifying around the US tour of Adalberto Álvarez y Su Son which begins next week! We have published a number of concert dates and will update with more as soon as they are confirmed.
If you've never seen Adalberto live you are in for a treat. The music is perfectly suited to the dancer and the band sounds as good live as on CD. Plus you get the excitement of the interaction with the bandmembers. You will be surprised just how hardcore well-played son can be! On my last visit to Cuba I went to see Adalberto every week. This band keeps you coming back for more.
They have a new CD, "El Son de Altura", on the way...any minute now it should be released. As usual it is on my must-buy list. Here s a little sample from the CD, the hit "El Melón".

Maestro Calixto Oviedo luciendose con Lily Hernández y La Jugada
Yes his English is getting better! Here's a nice shout-out we got today from Melón (Iván Lewis). His genius piano work on many of Issac's hits has been successfully deciphered by our resident expert Kevin Moore. The Beyond Salsa Piano book series has now grown to nine (9) volumes --the last four (4) focused exclusively on Iván's piano advanced piano concepts and executions. More surprises in store from Melón.

We also got a message from Calixto Oviedo that really blew us away....singer Lily Hernández tearing it up with La Jugada in Sweden. That's Calixto on drums & timbales. Is that La Timbara Mayor Michelle White with the black top and miniskirt taking video? Could be... That guiro is really cutting thorugh...excellent chambo all around. "El Congo Francisco" from the Soneros All Stars CD. "La Timba Soy Yo". Believe it or not that is El Sonero himself from Soneros All Stars, Janne "Yanesito" Bogdan tocándlo a lo cubano on bass. There is a highly anticipated percussion method from Kevin and Calixto in the works. Enjoy.
