by William Grim
November 9, 2002

If I were forced to categorize the music of Juan-Carlos Fromell I'd have to call it “Cuban-Lite." It has Spanish lyrics and the rhythms are latin-based, but it lacks the emotional intensity that we have come to expect from Cuban music.

Arturo Sandoval: Ronnie Scott's Jazz House

May 1, 2000

Now that Arturo Sandoval is approaching mythologization through a new HBO movie entitled, appropriately enough “The Arturo Sandoval Story," revived interest in his life and career--of course in sync with the Latin, and specifically Cuban, music surge--inevitably will lead to new recordings, re-releases and touring schedules. And to think: The Feds almost deported this soon-to-be legend. ...
