Anything by the various ensembles that go under the name of āThe Buena Vista Social Clubā
and the solo albums by the musicians - Ruben Gonzales on piano for example
and the singer, Omara Portuondo.
Itās all wonderful good-time music.
Just want to say thanks to everyone whoās putting music on hereā¦
certainly brightens/lightens the mood, checking it all outā¦
Amazing grace was one of my Scottish granās favouritesā¦my sister and I learned the words when we were really little and then would sing it for herā¦it still brings tears to my eyes thinking of herā¦she only ever met and held my first born as a baby and died peacefully on Boxing Day at my mum and dads while visiting for Christmasā¦then my second born was born unexpectedly a month early at my mum and dads house on Motherās Day on the same bed my gran died on while I was delivering flowers to my mumā¦my mum and dad delivered her and as she was born in her caul my mum had to break the caul with her teethā¦(midwives and ambulance who had already been called 10 minutes earlier arrived a few minutes later) my second daughter shared the same birth sign as my gran and for a few hours after she was born early had exactly the same mannerisms x
itās nice and comforting to have such memories.
Tuva has an awesome voice, well suited to standing in for Freddie
But I still think the original is the best.
Brian also sings on the Queen version - it would have been beyond stellar if they had got him to guest on guitar in the Danish National Orchestraās arrangement - I wonder if it was a question of ādidnāt askā or āasked and Brian said noā?

One for the older Pluckers
