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 🫶🏻

[@cubanreemachine9592]

@@skramdurosnob9794As a Cuban i can tell you that the feeling you get out of cuba you will not replicate anywhere else. If you arrive by plane there is nothing more beautiful. You first start seeing the Clear crystal water of cuba from above. Then you start seeing green pasture through the white fog. The Palm trees looking like giants compared to everything else around it. Then it is when that feeling starts to hit. You start feeling the sense of peace and finally at home. When you land you feel a big shake from the plane. When you get out of the plane you feel the humidity and the heat from the island hit you all at once but at the same time there is a when you inhale you smell wet dirt and freshly wet vegetation. Once you pass through the hell on earth that is Cuban Customs. You Leave the airport. You look up and see the sky. Nothing more beautiful the sky in cuba. Unlike the United States and any other nation that i have experience even in the Caribbean the sky in cuba is very close. In the United States the Sky seems high and the Clouds as well but not in Cuba. Cuba is the most beautiful country there's is in the world, but beauty has a curse. Just like a Plantation through that beauty there is a lot of pain and resentment. Family's split for ideological reasons. Hatred on Both sides because of what they have become.

Ein wunderbarer Film vom Wim Wenders mit einer der für mich berührendsten Bands überhaupt.. Ich hatte das Glück, die Band in Frankfurt life zu sehen, als sowohl Ibrahim Ferrer als auch Ruben Gonzalez noch lebten. Ich werde dieses Konzert nie vergessen.

My wonderful, sweet SIL is cuban and actualy from Mayari! He and my daughter left the Dominican Republic, where they met, in summer 2020 during the height of the pandemic and put down roots in Berlin. The wedding was delayed due to legal hickups. The ceremony took place 10 days ago. But even before I met him for the first time some 7 or 8 years ago, I already loved this music and especially this very song!

[@Alvaro1ization]

Escucho esta canción y siento una conexión con el pueblo cubano como con pocos... Vivan los pueblos hermanos de Cuba y de España! 🇨🇺❤️🇪🇸

[@themarvelous691]

Questa bellissima canzone...la dedico a un amico che non c'è più...che ha amato Cuba...e che mi ha insegnato a vivere...Grazie Alessio❤...sarai sempre con me.

[@abelguilarte6611]

La más purísima y genuina música cubana!. Es un Código, una Clave, un ADN de cubanía... Es un Don y una Dicha de canción...

[@Shainnelle]

I'm Puerto Rican but through this song I can feel sadness because I know that many cubans want freedom. Through music they express their soul.

[@JediMasterZao]

This song was written in Bautista's Cuba. If there's any feeling of freedom involved, it's about wanting to be freed from a fascistic, slavery-addled and USA-leashed dictator.

Thank you Ry Cooder for going to Cuba to find these incredible musicians. Even though many are gone now, you made them eternal. Thank you Ry, your son, Wim Wenders and these wonderful people, for making this happen all those years ago now.

[@ayshaysh3326]

Now I want to find out about all these people Ry and old guys who passed away. Very interesting

[@nfernandez11163]

Thanks Ry Cooder for making money for yourself and possibly members of Buena Vista Social Club and of course you made money for the government there. Tell me, did you do anything to help the suffering of so many people there? I think it was all to line your pockets.

Siempre, siempre se me llena los ojos de lágrimas de emoción... De aprecio... De amor hacia la música, hacia sus músicos de todo el mundo... Cuba, sin ti estoy seguro que muchos no entenderíamos la nostalgia la alegría el sentimiento más más profundo de una gran anécdota vivida por tu bellísimo pueblo... Con mucho mucho pero muchísimo amor de un pobre hermano Mexicano el que aquí te escribe...

[@mercoro]

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.

[@ELGRECO32]

Don't be shy to mention Cooder took most off the money and give them peanuts

[@jasonbatista5218]

Realmente, acompanhei esse documentário há muito tempo. Graças a Ry Cooder eles tiveram seu reconhecimento. Tocaram no Carnegue Hall, e em mais lugares. ABCS

Cuba eres como un anclaje en el tiempo, eres la nostalgia de lo que fue y es ; hueles a tabaco y a ron. Tu Son es el génesis de la música tropical y tus músicos son gente bendecida y generosa. Mexicano soy, pero te amo Cuba. Rezo por tu libertad.

Beyond what greatness I expected.

¡Qué nostalgia evoca 'Chan Chan' interpretada por Buena Vista Social Club! Esta canción es simplemente atemporal, y cada vez que la escucho, me transporta a las cálidas calles de La Habana. Además, no puedo evitar mencionar que junto con 'Chan Chan', 'A tu lado todo es día' de Trova La Habana son mis preferidas. ¡Gracias por compartir esta magnífica cancion
