Before the Totalitarian Progressive regime of Fidel Castro came to flower, Cuba was on the map culturally. It’s music and food was known the world over and millions of Americans visited the island. The one brand of music that came from Cuba and was widely accepted globally was Afro Cuban Jazz music. This music fused traditional Afro-Caribbean music with African American style Jazz. It made for great rhythm and many of these songs still sound good today. One group that is popular even today is the Buena Vista Social Club.

They even did a tribute to Argentine Progressive killer Che Guevara

Amazing songs by real Jazz musicians!
