popular music: Chucho Valdes ...     popular music:       Live at the Village Vanguard16 reviews Chucho Valdes EMI Europe Generic, 2000 Upbeat and exciting Firstly, I can't understand why some reviewers are complaining about the sound quality. I think the sound is amazing, on both my little portable cd player as well as my big surround sound system. This is my first introduction to Chucho, and I simply love it. The wonderful latin percussion and rythmn, as well as the fire and energy emanating from Chucho's brilliant piano playing. Track 6 "Drume ...             PIANO a PIANO1 review RUBEN GONZALEZ/ CHUCHO VALDES JM, 2005 Latin Love Ruben Gonzalez and Chucho Valdes are both wonderful musicians. I had the pleasure of seeing and hearing Chucho Valdes live, not only is he an outstanding pianist, he has also a great aura.             Dinastia Valdes Bebo Valdes, Chucho Valdes, ... Sony International, 2009             Juntos Para Siempre3 reviews Bebo Valdes, Chucho Valdes Red Int / Red Ink, 2009 "JUNTOS PARA SIEMPRE"- BEBO Y CHUCHO VALDES In this album,cuban piano virtuosos and exceptionally talented composers Bebo and Chucho Valdes, father and son, got together somewhere in Spain to record this joint effort and example of their musical greatness. Also included in this great album are songs each one composed in honor of the other. Many good things can be said about this joint effort, but in my opinion, let it suffice to say that ...             Desafios3 reviews Omara Portuondo & Chucho Valdes Nube Negra Records, 1999 Old "Feeling", New "Filin" During the late 50's and 60's (last century), a variation of the bolero was developed within the Caribbean Basin (Cuba,Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Panama, Colombia..etc) and Mexico Being countries of a highly "boleristic" tradition, new approaches were introduced to the bolero expression. These new approaches took harmonic and melodic concepts from modern jazz and incorporate ...             The Lost Days: Music in the Latin Style4 reviews Denyce Graves RCA, 2003 Haunting, bewitching: a real must have This record is exquisite in all its elements: the Voice of Graves -voice with a capital V!-, the selections, the arrangements! For me it would take hours to try to decipher its mystery of seduction. A real must for those who love poetry, music and the marriage of both. A real must for lovers of Latin American music. A real must for the senses. The first time I listened to the cd, it gave a jolt. ...             Mas Alla de Todo1 review Pablo Milanes;Chucho Valdes Universal Latino, 2008 Simple Perfection One pianist, one vocalist. This shows the power and beauty of music presented simply and cleanly. Lovely Cuban melodies, finely crafted. This CD, a glass of red wine, and a couch to recline on--perfection...............             El Ultimo Trago6 reviews Buika & Chucho Valdes Wea International, 2009 BUIKA IS THE BEST! For those of you who love a sultry, deep, playful voice with infectious rhythms, Buika is a wonderful discovery. Her CD Mi Nina Lola, released a few years ago, is a blessing. This CD she released, with Chuco Valdes on piano, is beautiful. Her voice plays off his piano, and vice-versa in a way that is hynotizing. See her in person if you get the chance. We saw her in Miami recently to a ...             Briyumba Palo Congo10 reviews Chucho Valdes Blue Note Records, 1999 stunning Quite simply stunning. Essentially flawless, the only criticism I can think of is that his effortless genius is intimidating. Moving, challenging, reeking of musicality, rythmic greatness.             Juntos Para Siempre3 reviews Bebo Valdes, Chucho Valdes Ariola Germany, 2008 "JUNTOS PARA SIEMPRE"- BEBO Y CHUCHO VALDES In this album,cuban piano virtuosos and exceptionally talented composers Bebo and Chucho Valdes, father and son, got together somewhere in Spain to record this joint effort and example of their musical greatness.

Our seats were in the very last row, and the sound quality was just horrible...but I could hear enough to know that his group was really cooking. So I finally broke down and got "Bele Bele en La Habana", and wow, am I glad I did. Not only is the sound quality terrific (check out the bass drum kicks on La Sitiera), but the ...             Live in Cuba3 reviews Ivan Lins, Chucho Valdes, ... Velas, 2000 Ivan as good as always !!!!!!! Ivan is for one a great pianist/singer/composer and arranger, and this live album is the perfect display rack. The collaboration and rich accents that Irakere adds to this album are peerless. Maybe not Ivan's best work, but if you're into brazilian jazz-pop music, this can be a great addition to your collection, and if you've known Ivan for years, you'll also love this piece of art. Please do ...             Afrocubanismo Live!2 reviews Chucho Valdes & Irakere Bembe Records, 2006 This disc is the closest thing to their live show in person I saw the band this past winter in a little jazz club and this is the closest disc to the in person experience that I`ve found yet, out of the eleven I`ve purchased since the show. All of their albums I`ve picked up have been great, but this is the one that captures all the energy and excitement that I had at that show, the people with me at the show agree. I`d say the first couple songs are the ...             Complete 1964 Sessions1 review Chucho Valdes & His Combo Malanga Films Spain, 2007 Introducing Paquito D'Rivera Approximately 78 min. Digitally remastered. One of the finest musicians of his era ,Cuban Valdes shows on this disc why his music is now being released all over the world. The two albums on this disc were originally recorded in the mid-sixties. The group consists of Paquito D'Rivera on alto sax and clarinet plus a couple of other horns and a rhythm section plus percussion. The music is ...             Yemaya6 reviews Irakere & Chucho Valdes Blue Note Records, 1999 I enjoy it more and more each time! I bought this CD after attending the 2000 Havana Jazz Festival and hearing the group live. When I first listened to the CD, there was so much going on in the music that I was a little distracted. Then I took it on a short road trip and cranked it up in the car, listening to it over and over. The complexity, harmonies, percussion, and ensemble work of this group was a great pleasure to my ...             Live6 reviews Chucho Valdes Rmm Records, 1998 Very good cd This is a very good cd but actually maybe a 4 star rating. The extra star is for Hilton Ruiz's piano solo on the last track. Worth the money, except for the singing on the track Mango Manguei. The jam is good but the interpreter's vocals and scat falls short of his past on this old song. However Hilton's performance on the last track makes up for it. Yes, I know that Chucho is amazing but ...             Chucho Valdes: Vol. 1-Jazzcuba Chucho Valdes Warner Uk/Zoom, 2009             New Conceptions6 reviews Chucho Valdés Blue Note Records, 2003 Caliente ! In recent times some great pianists have emerged from Latin America; Michel Camilo, Bebo Valdes, Hilton Ruiz, Eliane Elias, Gonzalo Rubalcaba, and our man in question - Jesus 'Chucho' Valdes.
