Nico, who`s real name was Antonio Fernandez, played in one of Cuba`s minor league baseball team and his prowess as an outfielder earned him the nickname "el saco" and from there he was known as Nico Saquito. This CD features the very last recordings Saquito made just before his death in 1982. This session was recorded at Estudios Siboney in the city of Santiago de Cuba in Oriente province, where Saquito was born. A Cuban all-star guitars and percussion ensemble, featuring singer, guitarist Eliades Ochoa of Buenavista Social Club fame.
