I came across this album through a Spanish flatmate, and it's been one of my favourites ever since. Infectious rhythm and melody, and some amusingly melodramatic but also surprisingly bittersweet lyrics - what more could you want?

A compilation of contemporary Cuban music, there's a great mix of exuberance and balladry here. IMHO the mark of a great album is when you like all the songs, but your personal favourite keeps changing over time. Well, with the exception of a couple of the slower numbers here (Inolvidable, Valeria and Cada Vez are a bit overdramatic for my liking), Havana Masters Vol. 1 definitely fits this criteria, which is why I chose it as my first review. Aw.

A jolly and melancholy gem.

Fresh and lively! 12 Sep 2008

I love this album and, although it lacks the variety of songs, I prefer it to the Buena Vista Social Club (to be fair they are quite different). El Aguacero, Mentiras, La Ingrata are my favourites. Some cheesy ones there as well, but no album is perfect. If you are unsure if you'll like it I'd advise you to buy from the used/ nearly new section. I bought mine from Amazon for literally 7p.

Great fun! 6 Sep 2008
Format:Audio CD
Thoroughly recommend this album to anyone who is interested in Cuban music, or those who simply want to have something alittle different to play at their next dinner party. There are both slow and fast paced tracks on this album, so it should please most people. I personally prefer the faster tracks as they get your feet moving. Beautifully produced too with a clarity of sound that makes it feel like they're right there in the room with you. Great!
