Subject: Buena Vista Social Club From: CarlZen Date: 25 Jul 99 - 11:57 PM This afternoon I just saw the newly released documentary about Ry Cooder's recordings with Long forgotten Cuban musicians. It is magnificent. I can't recommend it enough! The 4P.M. showing was packed, and no one moved til all the credits had finished rolling. All in the audience were applauding. There is a sense of beauty and dignity which comes across in the film. I'll stop talking about it now, but if you see it playing near you, don't miss it. |
Subject: RE: Buena Vista Social Club From: Winne Winston Date: 26 Jul 99 - 07:45 AM Yeah. It just played for two nights in Wellington. Not to be missed. Great music, played by very old guys. But the real eye-opener for me was being able to see Havana-- which has been off-limits to Americans for so long. Haven't seen a 54 Pymoutth or a 51 Merc in ages!! Winnie |
Subject: RE: Buena Vista Social Club From: Peter T. Date: 26 Jul 99 - 08:52 AM We had a thread on this 2 weeks ago, he said modestly, with the same advice -- great film, beautiful Havana scenes (need more of that in the film!). Musicians will love it, and citizens too. yours, Peter T. |
