{"id":2075,"count":1,"description":"Buena Vista Social Club is an ensemble of Cuban musicians established in 1996 to revive the music of pre-revolutionary Cuba. The project was organized by World Circuit executive Nick Gold, produced by American guitarist Ry Cooder and directed by Juan de Marcos Gonz\u00e1lez. They named the group after the homonymous members' club in the Buenavista quarter of Havana, a popular music venue in the 1940s. To showcase the popular styles of the time, such as son, bolero and danz\u00f3n, they recruited a dozen veteran musicians, many of whom had been retired for many years.\r\n\r\nMusicians:\r\nLuis Barzaga\r\nJoachim Cooder\r\nRy Cooder\r\nJulio Alberto Fern\u00e1ndez\r\nIbrahim Ferrer\r\nCarlos Gonz\u00e1lez\r\nJuan de Marcos Gonz\u00e1lez\r\nRub\u00e9n Gonz\u00e1lez\r\nSalvador Repilado Labrada\r\nManuel 'Puntillita' Licea\r\nOrlando 'Cachaito' L\u00f3pez\r\nBenito Su\u00e1rez Magana\r\nManuel 'Guajiro' Mirabal\r\nEliades Ochoa\r\nOmara Portuondo\r\nJulienne Oviedo S\u00e1nchez\r\nCompay Segundo\r\nBarbarito Torres\r\nAlberto 'Virgilio' Vald\u00e9s\r\nL\u00e1zaro Villa","link":"https:\/\/egiarecords.com\/eu\/artista\/buena-vista-social-club\/","name":"Buena Vista Social Club","slug":"buena-vista-social-club","taxonomy":"artista","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/egiarecords.com\/eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artista\/2075","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/egiarecords.com\/eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artista"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/egiarecords.com\/eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/artista"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/egiarecords.com\/eu\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?artista=2075"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
