Afro-Cuban All Stars - Distinto


'Distinto' from the 1999 album 'Distinto, Differente' makes me want to hop on a plane to Cuba and salsa down the aisles the whole way. The Afro-Cuban All  Stars mix pretty much all forms and styles of Cuban music including bolero, chachachá, salsa, son montuno, timba, guajira, danzón, rumba and abakua. Their music is sure to get anyone and everyone up on their feet and shaking their hips with fat grins on their faces. Other lovely songs on this album are ‘Varaciones’ a slower, more classical piece and ‘Tributo al’ with more uplifting horns and some beautiful flute playing - JTFD
