La musica de 'The Motorcycle Diaries' y "Buena Vista Social Club'

La música asombra! If you like latin music...you like your body swaying involuntarily to the beats then these are the two albums you should sample.

The Motorcycle Diaries OST: Gustavo Santaolalla has created a masterpiece...a piece which blends progressive rock with jazz and ethnic beats. check out the tracks Apertura and La partida from the diaries. I can guarantee that you would like them...actually love them!!! They are awesome. I ordered my CD from amazon today.

Buena Vista Social Club: In 1996, composer, producer, and guitar legend Ry Cooder entered Egrem Studios in Havana with the forgotten greats of Cuban music, many of them in their 60s and 70s, some of them long since retired. The resulting album, Buena Vista Social Club, became a Grammy-winning international bestseller. Click for more history.

"Music is a treasure hunt. You dig and dig and sometimes you find something. In Cuba the music flows like a river. It takes care of you and rebuilds you from the inside out." - Ry Cooder
