Bebo Valdes: Americana



BEBO VALDES, piano, and Javier Colina (on bass)- "Americana", live in Mallorca (03?) - legendary Cuban pianist (father of Chucho) shows why he's considered a master pianist internationally; this improvisation is based on American music, such as Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and Willow Weep for Me (Strayhorn?).. incredible REAL music, no namby pamby schlock... for tv, lol.. (this video has the title mislabeled, I saw the concert DVD)
