Barroso, Abelardo y La Orquesta Sensación
|
Bruca Manigua
If you have any corrections or comments regarding the
styles, the recording date(s) of the tunes, the musicians, etc., please
let me know.
The CD is "Bruca Maniguá con Abelardo Barroso y La
Orquesta Sensación", one of the best charanga bands; according to
some of my notes, Barroso was over 60 years old at the time of the
recording; Orq Sensación is quite mellow but if you listen, they have a
lot of drive; good flute solos (Pablo ?), great use of violins, bass booms
a bit; excelent vocals including good vocal harmony even with the one
strong fañoso style ("Bruca Manigua") but I don't hear the
fañoso as strongly on the remainder of the tunes; all tunes are under 3
minutes; musicians may include (from another CD because this CD does not
list the musicians) Rolando Valdés, Director,guiro y coro; Abelardo
Barroso, Cantante; Juan Pablo Miranda, Flauta; Ovidio Pérez Pinto Y Lauri,
Violines; Jesús Esquizarrosa, Timbal; Carlos Zulueta, Piano; Miguel
Santacruz "El Piche", Tumbadora; Ta-Benito, Coro; Luis Donald,
Coro; Eddy Alvarez, Coro; Alejandro "El Negro" Vivar, Trompeta;
Enemelio Jiménez, Saxo alto; Generoso "El Tojo" Jiménez,
Trombon:
"Bruca Maniguá"
(Afro-Cha) a classic tune by Arsenio Rodriguez, and one of my all time
favorites and my favorite cut on the CD, very interesting horn solos
showing the some U.S. pop/jazz influences on Cuban music.
"El Cangrejito"
(cha-cha-chá) nice danzon intro.
"San Luisera"
(son montuno).
"El Fantasma Del Circo"
(cha-cha-chá).
"Guajiras De Hoy"
(guajira) reminds me why I have always liked guajiras; tasty and simple
timbale break licks; is that a Joropo ending?
"La Mulata Chanela"
(cha-cha-chá) interesting simple straight electric guitar intro and solo;
has bongos which I have not heard on many chachachás.
"Sauvecito"
(cha-cha-chá) pretty straight, nothing really fancy; I don't hear a tell
tale chachachá piano pattern on most of the tune, are the violins playing
the pattern?
"Changui Monte"
(son montuno) one of my favorite cuts on the CD; nice violin solo; one
very tasty timbale lick; the tune drives but it just fades at the end, I
wish they had let it go on, I wonder what else was there!
"Los Tamalitos de
Olga" (cha-cha-chá) again I don't hear the tell tale piano
chachachá pattern?
"Vacila Con Tu Trago"
(cha-cha-chá) seems to have a strong old style bolero section.
"Resabroso
Cha-Cha-Cha" (cha-cha-chá) at last, a clear chachacha piano
pattern.
"Lo Que La Vida Enseña"
(guajira) is that bolero in the various vocal sections?
