"Maybe it is helpful to know that a certain Mr Keith Richards also owns a copy of this CD ... MADURO (Rigoberto Hechevarría-Ferrer): his face is known to the many patrons of the Casa de la Trova in Santiago de Cuba, where Maduro and his quinteto played almost every day from 1972 to 1991. They surely remember the old man: his sly smile, his straw hat, his left-handed guitar playing, maybe they remember his old fashioned valve-amplifier. But mostly they remember his music! By the time he was fifteen, Maduro had already played with all the big names of his music guild: with the great Miguel Matamoros; with Sindo Garay, the father of Trova music, and with Pancho Cobas, who plays with Vieja Trova Santiaguera to this day. Maduro s style is unmistakably his own, marked by a free rhythmic feeling and by the use of complicated, impressionistic chords, punctuated by disharmonious notes. Like all great improvisational players, his music always brings something original to tradition." (Oriente)
