Official Retrospective Of Cuban Music

By Cubaphile | October 23, 2009

Rating: 5 stars - Awesome

The Official Retrospective of Cuban Music is back in stock for a limited time. According to the Salsa Blanca website, the distributor found 107 copies.

If you are a fan of Cuban music you can’t go wrong with this box set. Every review I have found is positive, and I personally own this 4 CD compilation. Not only is the music awesome, and a historical treasure, but the 80 page booklet like Olavo Alen Rodriguez is a mini-course in understanding Cuban music.
