Eliades Ochoa was one of the great old Cuban artists featured in Ry Cooder's 'Buena Vista Social Club' movie. Naturally, I had to use a border of Cuban flags for the poster... The trade and travel embargo the US continues to maintain with Cuba is a classic example of bureaucratic political bullshit. The show Eliades Ochoa and his great band El Cuarteto Patria put on at the Boulder Theater was ONE good reason to loosen these restrictions! He played rolling and expanded length songs that stretched genre and jam boundaries, with incredible musicianship and energy. Pretty amazing for an old man! Viva, Cubanismos! Put that in your pipe and smoke it, Miami Politicos...
