CD Reviews

LAMENTO CUBANO. Willy, you forgot this song
pola baker | Great Neck, New York | 11/13/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Willy, you have many albums with cuban songs, and I enjoy

listening to them. Yet to my surprise you have not included

in any of them the song LAMENTO CUBANO, which is a perfect

song to describe the Cuba of today.



LAMENTO CUBANO (1932)

Music: Eliseo Grenet

Letra: Teofilo Radillo



Oh, Cuba hermosa,

primorosa,

¿por que sufres

tanto quebranto ?

Oh, patria mia,

quien diria,

que tu cielo azul,

nublara el llanto.



oh, beautiful and

dainty Cuba,

why are you suffering

so much today,

oh my beloved homeland

who would say it

that your blue sky,

the tears would mist.



To my present surprise this song was included in the film

DIRTY DANCING, HAVANA NIGHTS, sung by Donato and the Troubadors.

It was the song in the film that I liked best. This song was

written in 1932 in protest against the tyranny of Machado, but

in the film is used as an anti-batista song.



I would love to hear willy Chirino perform this song, either as a solo or as a duet. Keep putting out CDs of Cuban songs. By the way, Willy, great cover of you with the Cuban flag."
Wonderful
