Con Sabor Playlist 3/13/2021
Tonight, we paid tribute to the late, great Cuban rumbero/composer Raul Brito “Lali” of the seminal Cuban rumba group “Clave Y Guaguanco” who died of a heart attack earlier this month. Lali’s music has been played by artists such as Septeto Nacional De Ignacio Pineiro to John Santos and the Coro Folklorico Kindembo. Lali was an exceptional human being with a big heart and radiant smile as well as a great singer and percussionist. I gave a musical tribute to Lali this evening…RIP.
