Pop Culture Press, CD Review >>
Cuban singer/poet Pedro Luis Ferrer has managed to record and perform in his native land even while not being on the top of Fidel Castro's list of favorites. Ferrer's style is fairly straightforward with him playing the tres (small guitar popular with Cuban son players) and singing his wonderfully wacky compositions with the help of two female singers and a deft percussionist. An example of what you are in for (and maybe why ol' Fidel doesn't dig it) comes from the first track "Fiesta de mujeres" where Ferrer sings: "Julie removes her skirt/The party is only beginning/Eva takes off her blouse, her belt/Loosens her hair, her bra/Marihuana in the bathroom/Hallucinations." Then we find out that the women of this gleefully debauched scene are actually all Martians. 02/04/07 >> go there
