The Roots Of Cuban Music Are In

I've Done A Lot Of Things Away From My Homeland.

Every Time I Talk About This, I Say: When The Singer Is Singing, He Must Be Respected, You Must Be Able To Hear What He's Saying. You Can't Put A Trombone And A Drum Up There, And A Microphone On The Drum, Microphones On Everybody. You Can't Hear What He's Saying.

Can You Imagine That Cuba And Europe's Youth, Who Had Forgotten About Traditional Music, Who Only Thought Of Rock Music, Are Now Looking Back Towards Their Grandparents? That Is A Phenomenon.

Young People Don't Want To Be Second To Anyone. Everyone Wants To Be An Overnight Star. Look How Many Years I Had To Wait, How Many Roads I Had To Travel, How Many Songs I Had To Sing. And Now I'm Just Beginning, Never Ending.

Cubans Are Frantic When It Comes To Appreciating Music.
