They are awesome, and their music is magical! It is too sad for me that they lived whole their lives in Cuba, and the World didn't know about them because of the politics.. Too sad.. I'm glad they have found a national audience in the end cause they deserve to stay remembered with this kind of beautiful music. Who knows how many great stuff is out there still waiting to be discovered .

They are great I discovered after watching movie Buena Vista Social Club.
Very emotional music

They are great and we can thank to Ry Cooder for the recordings

And they are perfect example of people who don't care about world fame and money, they just enjoy playing music

Ry Cooder and Compay Segundo are guitar idols for me! Though I've only seen Omara Portuondo live yet...

And Chan Chan is one of my favorite songs of all time!

Do try to listen to the full quality CD rather than an MP3. The quality of the recording is one of the best I've ever heard. On a good stereo or headphones, it's like being in the studio with them.

You are absolutely right Ivan..

I saw them live in a mall once in Cuba and it was excellent. I was so lucky to see them..

Chan Chan is my favorite latin song of all time

It is just so captivating!
