Buena Vista Social Club


Seeing this picture reminded me of the very bumpy flight from Seoul to Singapore, where I watched the Buena Vista Social Club two and a half times (in between taking care of a one and a bit year old little girl). I was totally taken in by everything about it. When we got back to Singapore, I bought and played many of the CDs that came out of the film. There is something very colorful and bleak about life in Cuba. It reminded me of the working class communities that my Grandparents came from (without the colour and the good weather). Thanks Ry Cooder and Wim Wenders.
