Cuba Le Canta a Serrat

"What an inspired project! A host of Cuba's top musicians create their own Latin jazz, salsa, trova, timba, and son versions of the groundbreaking songs of Joan Manuel Serrat, the Catalan singer-songwriter." -- Songlines [*****]
"Catalan poet and singer Joan Manuel Serrat is the kind of pan-Latin cultural giant who can make the Anglo-American global mainstream feel a touch provincial. You and I may never have heard of him, but the mere mention of the Franco-defying veteran balladeer's name was enough to bring out the cream of the Cuban crop for this gorgeous tribute album." -- The Daily Telegraph
