Buena Vista Social Club

E 2026-03-04

The rum guzzlin' continues as Frizz and Bob tackle one of the greatest musical accidents ever, the Buena Vista Social Club. Join us for a tale about how passport issues led to Ry Cooder finding some of the greatest musicians from the golden age of Cuban music, and together recorded an album that is a brilliant time capsule of that country. We talk about a ton of traditional Cuban musical styles and the folks who made it possible. Also, we laugh at a very silly name and elephant butt hairs.
