In 1979 the Cuban state recording company Egrem got together 30 or so
of the foremost musicians of the time, including Ruben Gonzalez and
Pio Leyva, later to form part of The Afro-Cuban Allstars,to record a
series of albums that were put out on the state owned Areito label.
In 5 days of jamming 5 albums were produced. These albums have just
been reissued on the World Circuit label as a double cd set.
I know some people on the list bought into the BVSC, ACAS, Ruben
Gonzalez thing a couple of years ago. To those people this set is
worth searching out, it being a truly wondrous example of cuban son.
