Ibrahim Ferrer - Buenos Hermanos

Producer/guitarist Ry Cooder says about Ibrahim Ferrer's second solo album: "You had Ibrahim's appearance from nowhere on Buena Vista Social Club. Then his first solo record put him there as a great singer. But Buenos Hermanos takes him where nobody else has gone." Ferrer's first release since 1999's gold-certified debut Buena Vista Social Club presents Ibrahim Ferrer is full of surprises. Buenos Hermanos not only features the romantic boleros for which Ferrer is best known but also all manner of rhythmically explosive material performed by a remarkable band that includes Manuel Galban on guitar and organ; percussionists Anga Diaz, Jim Keltner, and Joachim Cooder; bassist extraordinaire Cachaito Lopez; special guests such as Grammy-winner Chucho Valdes on piano, the Blind Boys of Alabama; and such long-time Cooder associates as accordionist Flaco Jiminez and trumpeter Jon Hassell.
