Title: VICENTICO VALDES/SONORA MATANCERA
Product review: In 1958 the New York City based, latin music label "Seeco" decided to team up their two top recording stars in a recording session at the legendary Radio Progreso studio-theatre in Havana Cuba. Vicentico Valdes,a cuban bolerista living in New York City since 1949, traveled to Havana to join the equally famous Sonora Matancera in what is considered an all time classic album. Vicentico had previously recorded with Sonora Matancera for "Seeco" during a previous Havana, Cuba tour in 1953, about four 45/78 rpm singles were recorded then which left fans "asking for seconds", so the 1958 re-encounter was welcomed everywhere. Ever since its release in late 1958 or early 1959 this album, now on CD format has been a best seller. "Los Aretes De La Luna" was and still is the most internationally acclaimed and successful bolero song from this great compilation, followed by "Lo An~oro" and "Solo Por Rencor". A must for all afro-cuban music lovers and collectors.
