Our last podcast was hot! So, this one is smoooooth. And that's because we're starting out with a tribute to the son montuno, with four examples of how contemporary artists interpret this beautiful classic form. We start with Maraca, then Orquesta La Palabra from L.A. Next, it's Ruben Blades paying his tribute to son--with a "special guest" vocalist... or is he? And Cubanismo joins in with another version of a great Cuban classic. But that's not all for this podcast, because after all that gorgeous son, we have contemporary hits from Celia Cruz, Tito Nieves, then into a set of romantic salsas with Tony Vega, Miles Pena, Jerry Rivera, and George Lamond. Miguel Matamoros once wrote, "There is no more sublime way to soothe the soul than with the son montuno" -- "No hay mas sublime que el son, para el alma divertir." And that's what this week's podcast is all about. So take a break for a while... in Macondo.
