CD Review: 15 años locos por la música (Various Artists)
Bis Music 2008
Review by Bill Tilford, all rights reserved

Of all the multi-CD collections of various artists that Bis has released in recent years, this one, which was released in honor of its 15th Anniversary, is by far this writer's personal favorite. It is a very modern collection and contains a range of genres seldom seen within one package - just to name a few examples, classical selections by Ulises Hernández and Camerata Romeu share space with Jazz by Ernán López-Nussa and César Lopez y Habana Ensemble, changüi by Elito Revé, Timba from Azúcar Negra, Afrocuban Funk by Orisha Dreams and Alternative by Interactivo y Telmary.  There is also some folklore,. A very pleasant surprise for this writer was in Disc 4 - there are some wonderful children's groups including a fine charanga, Los Aragoncitos de Cienfuegos.  Most of the songs in the collection were also part of recordings that were winners of Cubadisco awards in various genres over a the 15-year period. There are also some very good liner notes (in Spanish) about the history of the company. This review will be short and to the point - go find this.  It is one of the very best collections of multiple artists to emerge from Cuba during the past two decades.
