What is certain though, is that this first major solo outing shines a long overdue spotlight on one of the most wonderful Bolero/roots artists to ever emerge in Cuban music. Like the humble Parisian baker on the corner who makes stellar croissants out of what might otherwise be a banal commonbread, Ferrer performs these romantic standards with a divine usualness that makes them burst with love. Whirling in the mid-20th century time warp that is Cuba, this stellar studio opus bears many similarities to that of the Grammy-winning BUENA VISTA SOCIAL CLUB. Many friends from that project are again on hand, including producer/slide guitar stylist Ry Cooder, Eliades Ochoa on guitar, pianist Ruben Gonzalez and the superb vocalist Omara Portuondo, although the gentle background harmonies by the women of Gemo Cuatro and sumptuous string arrangements are wonderful new additions. "Silencio" is surely one of the loveliest pieces here, with a heart-melting duet by Ferrer and Portuondo--the juxtaposition of Cuban guitar legend Manuel Galban's vibrato fills and Cooder's Hawaiian-style slide tastefully ornament the song's romantic imagery.
