World Circuit continues its acclaimed series of Cuban recordings with this lavishly packaged double-CD, including several of the musicians featured on a trio of releases from 1997 that have together sold over 500,000 units. The Estrellas (stars of Cuba's state-owned Areito label) is an unequalled collection of thirty of Cuba's finest musicians, spanning four generations. The band was brought together in Havana's Egrem Studios in 1979 for a special five-day session that produced these extraordinary recordings. These historic recordings have long been difficult to find. They are now available in digitally-remastered sound, with full lyrics, liner notes, and rare photos from the label now acknowledged as the definitive source for the best in Cuban music.
