Celina Gonzalez - Fiesta Guajira (1987)




Excellent album of Afro-Cuban music from the Queen of Cuban Country, of musica campesina or the songs of Cuba's rural population. The album was recorded in 1982 and Celina's gutsy voice shines throughout.

Here's a great clip of Celina singing 'Santa Barbara' with her son:

Also couldn't resist this homage to Fidel Castro:
