Album Notes

With a number of live records to their credit, Los Van Van have always wanted for a record that truly captured their vibrant, electrifying live performance.This edition, which was nominated for a Latin Grammy in 2004, captures the essence of the band in one of their most complete performances ever. The Double CD set comes with an additional DVD with the full performance filmed as well as a menu including individual song selections, biography, backstage with Van Van, press conference, interviews and a Photo Gallery.
Led by Juan Formell, Los Van Van have become one of the most successful son groups in the world. To the Afro-Spanish sound of traditional Cuban music, Los Van Van have added a strong jazz emphasis. It is this fusion that has led to their popularity outside of Cuba. They can be heard on Songo, Sandunguera, and En El Malecon de La Habana. Los Van Van has remained a prolific presence throughout the decade, releasing albums including Llego Van Van which won the Grammy for Best Latin Salsa Album and touring throughout the world.
