Afro-Cuban All Stars - A Todo Cuba Le Gusta

The debut album by the Afro-Cuban All Stars was the first in a trilogy of extraordinary albums recorded by World Circuit in a single two-week session at Havana's EGREM studios in 1996. The other albums, which they share many of the same personnel, were the "Buena Vista Social Club" and "Introducing...Ruben Gonzalez". The All-Stars is a gathering of four generations of Cuba's finest featuring some of the great soneros from Cuba's golden age of the 50's including Ibrahim Ferrer, Pio Leiva and Manuel "Puntillita" Licea. The thirteen piece band includes Ruben Gonzalez (piano), "Cachaito" Lopez (bass), "Anga" Diaz (congas) and Guajiro Mirabel (trumpet).
