Apr 4, 2011 - Cuban Son performers Septeto Nacional de Cuba began just in time Saturday evening at the Conga Room and delighted their audience for just over an hour. Eugenio Rodriguez, the 70-year lead singer, said: "Para nosotros venir a Los Angeles es como venir al cielo" (For us, coming to Los Angeles is like coming to heaven. "Como venir al Paraiso" (Like coming to Paradise), he continued. They are a long way from their home, Cuba, on a tour that will take them to nine U.S. States.
Here is hoping they know that, to us also, an hour of their music was like spending an hour in Paradise.
