Go to Ricardo's web site: http://www.makinaloca.com/music.html for music clips and ordering info. My faves are "Malambo" a send-up of an early OK Jazz number, and "Lollabrigida" from Grand Kalle, and musicians on the session include Papa Noel and Wuta Mayi. He's waiting on iTunes and Calabash.com to set up downloads. CC Smith Beat Magazine, Los Angeles Thanks for posting this, Matt…

I'm Spanish and it is easier for me to get arround, specially when I bought some Cuban clothes and picked up the accent, then I started to shun the infamous "jineteros" and get to the real people... and even them have been perverted by that huge imbalance of the aspirations given by a high education and the absolute lack of expectations and hopelessness provoked by that system. In any case, I got to go to some incredible afrocuban ceremonies deep inside San Pedrito neighbourhood, in particular, celebrations for Chango's day (Santa Barbara). It is the first time I've seen the power of music at its most, taking people to states of trance thanks to some incredible guaguanco and rumba drumming... dude, I’ve been in Cuba a bunch of times, doing some features on Cuban music, and it’s a shit hole.
