Album Notes

In this album “El Niño” also takes us for a visit to his childhood Cuba with the song “Cazuela”, a captivating rendition of his memories of the lively street vendors extolling the quality of their wares on his Cuban streets. Of course, no album of “El Niño” would be complete without a romantic story, and here he offers “No Supe Amar”, a meditative and mature realization of a love lost, performed to the beat of Afro Cuban drums. Jesus finally brings us to the present day Cuba with the heart wrenching “Te Juro Suelo Mio”, an earnest promise to his beloved land that he will return some day.
