Cuban Clarinets The results are charming. With the addition of dual clarinets, this new release by the great Compay Segundo has a distinctly antique 40's sound. Many of the cuts have a soft swinging lilt that is a quite different sound than that of the other "graduates" of the Buena Vista Social Club. Of course, the percussive jump of some cuts will be recognized. This is a fantastic album that has not been out of my car CD player in two months. It's my favorite of all the Cuban CDs I own and clearly the best of the post-Buena Vista recording by any of the stars of that grouping. Eliades Ochoa's recent Son De Santiago comes closest.
