Clasiqueando Con Ruben
Wiki says:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Son_(music)
This is SON music and the title is in honor of the pianist for the BVSC, Ruben Gonzalez.
SON is also said to be of African orgin, although it only appeared at the turn of the last century. Where was it hiding? :) If it took that long to manifest itself, a body could be excused for thinking it was of Cuban orgin!!
Son was looked down upon by the Cuban Elite i.e. Europeans. I guess they couldn't 'hear' it. Wiki says SON caused "considerable Anxiety" among the powers that be. I love it for that reason alone. And of course because of the BVSC.
Wiki also says BVSC was not that well thought of by the Cubans. Read the article. It's a good read.
To hear the tune, just go to O-10's post and click on the song title. It will move to the start of that tune.
Cheers
