Afrocubism - Djelimady Rumba

Full review to follow. As for the show: given the musicians involved here, it was tough to go in expecting anything other than excellence — which is probably an unrealistic standard. The band still managed a good dose of transcendent moments, and this was a really fabulous time. As for the recording: it is what it is — marred somewhat by wind noise and the enthusiasms of the clapping, cheering crowd around me. In time, I'll see if I can tease anything more out of this recording, but for now, this will do as a souvenir.
