LYRICS
(Spanish)
De Alto Cedro voy para Marcané
Luego a Cueto voy para Mayarí.
El cariño que te tengo
Yo no lo puedo negar
Se me sale la babita
Yo no lo puedo evitar.
Cuando Juanica y Chan Chan
En el mar cernían arena
Como sacudía el ‘jibe’
A Chan Chan le daba pena.
Limpia el camino de paja
Que yo me quiero sentar
En aquel tronco que veo
Y así no puedo llegar.
De Alto Cedro voy para Marcané
Luego a Cueto voy para Mayarí.
(English)
I’m going from Alto Cedro
to Marcané
Then from Cueto, I’m going
to Mayarí.
The love I have for you I cannot deny
My mouth is watering
I just can’t help myself.
When Juanika and Chan Chan
Sifted sand together on the beach
How her bottom shook and
Chan Chan was aroused!
Clean the dry sugar cane
leaves from the path
So I can get to that trunk
I want to sit down.
I’m going from Alto Cedro
to Marcané
Then from Cueto, I’m going
to Mayarí.

My dad was in Cuba to work when suddenly died. The rest of us we were back in Italy, I Will never forget that phone call telling us the sad new, never seen my dad again. Many years passed, this song and this album make me cry all the times because I Will Always feel this special connection with this island, like my Dad Is still there enjoying the music, the lovely Friends, the mojitos... I like to think like that. Love to Cuba.

As a young boy from England on holiday in France in the year 2000, aged around 7 or 8, my parents thought they'd lost me in a music store. They of course got worried, apparently searching for 15 minutes thinking I had ran away. Well, they found me hidden away at the very back of the store, with a pair of huge headphones on, listening to this Album 😂 Needless to say they were relieved, and given my new found fascination with this music they bought me the album. I have to say I'm pretty proud of younger me, for having such good taste. As a 30 year old this music never fails to bring a smile to my face. Viva Cuba 🫶🏻

I remember going camping with my dad, when I was about 14. I was still asleep at noon, and he played this song on his cd player, very quietly. But I still remember, how this song, while I was still asleep, was sort of the background music for my dream. I woke up as the song was still playing, and it was maybe the most gentle wake up, I ever had. More then 18 years have passed, since that morning. And my dad died this january, but I will always will link that song to that moment, and ultimatly to my father

Ry Cooder an english musician was responsible for this album, he planned to record an album with two african musicians in Cuba, but for some reason they weren't able to get their visa and arrive in Cuba, so Ry Cooder decided to gather cuban musicians from the 60s and 70s, and since Cuba was "frozen in time" per say, the recording studio was untouched and the recording material was all available there, so they recorded this incredible album. Of course Ry Cooder thought about orchestrating the album, but the Compay, Rubén, Ochoa and the others are incredible musicians as well, just incredible how this ended making one of the best albums of all time.

I recall when Ibrahim and the group performed in Santa Cruz, California to a Sold Out arena. He/they were Epic! I’m 71 now, and still recall the amazing concert.

This song amazingly reflects the atmosphere of Cuba. People, atmosphere, views, landscapes and extremes. I always come back to these memories. As soon as I can, I will return to explore this island further.
