my favorite musical group
The Buena Vista Social Club was a members club in Havana, Cuba . It was a popular location for musicians to play and a locale that held musical activities and dances during the 1940s. The same place that had represented Cuba's golden age of music and that had closed down fifty years ago, inspired a recording between Ry Cooder and traditional Cuban musicians, some who had performed at the club during the height of its popularity. The artists who got together formed under the name of the Buena Vista Social Club. This is the link to the amazing award-winning documentary about the group: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ahuduPpZJQA&feature=featured
