Description
A Toda Cuba Le Gusta (1997) is the debut album by the Afro-Cuban All Stars, a project led by Juan de Marcos González to celebrate the golden age of Cuban music. Recorded in Havana’s EGREM Studios in 1996, the same sessions that produced Buena Vista Social Club. The album unites legendary veterans like Rubén González and Raúl Planas with younger musicians in a vibrant showcase of son, danzón, rumba, and mambo.
The record brims with energy, recorded live to capture the feel of a Havana dance hall, and it received international acclaim, earning a Grammy nomination for Best Tropical Latin Performance. Both a homage to Cuba’s musical heritage and a spark for its global revival, A Toda Cuba Le Gusta remains a cornerstone of the 1990s Cuban music renaissance.
In celebration of the album’s enduring legacy, WorldCircuitRecords will release a special splatter vinyl edition of ATodaCubaLeGusta, marking the 30-year anniversary of the 1996 recording sessions. This limited-run collector’s version features a striking Cuban flag coloured vinyl design and commemorative packaging, offering longtime fans and new listeners alike a premium format to revisit this landmark album.
