Gathering some of the last recordings made by the Cuban pianist and bandleader Bebo Valdes before he left his homeland in 1960, this set also highlights the many talented Cuban performers with whom Valdes worked, who remain virtually unknown outside the country. Artists such as the drummer Laserie, and the singers Celeste Mendoza, Miguelito Cuni, and Armado "Guapacha" Borcela perform a variety of nostalgia-tinged vintage Latin rarities, including the bolero-ranchera "Guadalupe," which relates the journey of Fidel Castro's revolutionaries from Mexico to the Cuban mountains, and the amusing "Ladron De Galinas," about a fictional black saint.
