You like Cuban music, over the years I had the chance to see in person some great Cuban jazz musicians.
I just found this video on You Tube, in 2004 I went with a friend of mine to see Arturo Sandoval live at The Blue Note (New York).
We were there watching the show in person when they recorded this show.
I did not notice that they were recording the show, but from the angle that they filmed the show it looks like the camera had to be right were we were sitting, because that was the angle that we saw that show.
We had a great time, it was the first time my friend saw a live jazz show.
Arturo Sandoval and his group were great that night.

I saw Chucho Valdes in Newark, N.J. at the NJ Arts Center he was great and you could see that he came to play that evening he was really on....
Chucho Valdes is among my short list of favorite jazz piano players.

Welcome!!!
I will continue posting on a regular basis some great links to great music.
Note: There is a difference on the time of the posting. Probably because I posted at 7:40 AM New York Time and the server where this information is located must be in Europe anywhere where there is a 5 hour difference to the time of NY City, since the server is showing 12:40 PM.
