A rough take on one of my favorite Cuban son standards, a tune that is actually a recent composition by Alejandro “el viejo” Almenaris, of Santiago de Cuba. After his quartet was featured on a Putumayo release back in the ’90s, the song has made the rounds and has been covered all around the world. I like the simplicity of it, which seems to lend itself well to really opening it up and looking around inside.
