Carlos Puebla - Cuba: Songs for Our America

Carlos Puebla challenged foreign influences and the forces of imperialism in 1950s Cuba with songs about his oppressed countrymen. Then, in his music, he chronicled and celebrated the 1959 revolution. He and his group have toured throughout Cuba, Latin America, and "anywhere they are needed by the revolution." Liner notes in Spanish and English include song lyrics and an account of Puebla's service to his lifelong cause.
