Mooie her-uitgave op een dubbel CD van Polo Montañez` eerste twee albums op het Lusafrica label met tijdloze, klassieke songs en composities, Cubaanse son en guajira. CLASSIC stuff!
Polo Montañez (June 5, 1955 - November 26, 2002) was a much revered Cuban singer and songwriter.
``...Polo composes while he`s walking or driving a tractor, while he`s swimming, under the rain, the sun or the moon, when he`s seeding the land... and even when he`s sleeping``.
Some musicians seem born to fuse the mind and body of a people. Sometimes, they die too young. Then their songs follows those who survive them with an inconsolable pleasure. Fernando Borrego Linares, aka Polo Montañez (Polo of the Mountains), died after a night road accident in November 2002.
His first album Guajiro Natural (Natural Peasant) was released in 2000 and his second Guitarra Mia (You My Guitar) in 2002. Here gathered in a special 2 CD edition.
