Best Cuban ablums of 2011…and Club Sur tonight, 1/28

Posted by on 28 Jan 2012 | Tagged as: Music

Here are some of the best Cuban timba, reggaeton and rumba alblums of 2011 (in my opinion) from Los Van Van, Halia Mompie, Combinacion de la Habana, Los 4, Agüiri Yo and the beautiful soundtrack to Chico y Rita.  Click on the ablum covers to hear music samples.

And I’ll be spinning many of these tonight at Club Sur.
