Second album from legendary member of Buena Vista Social Club – Ibrahim Ferrer. Available for first time on 180G vinyl and deluxe casebound CD. The vinyl edition includes a download card and a 12 page booklet. It was mastered at Abbey Road.

“I think the album’s a goddam classic,” Ry Cooder said after producing Buenos Hermanos, the second solo album by the Buena Vista Social Club singing star Ibrahim Ferrer.

Released in 2003 when Ferrer was 76 years old, Buenos Hermanos now gets a welcome reissue on 180 gsm vinyl and today sounds more like a ‘classic’ than ever – “the ultimate Latin record”, as Cooder described it at the time. “I don’t think anybody other than Ibrahim would or could make a record like this. It has every kind of nuance and subtlety that it could possibly have, as well as muscle,” he added.

Like the original Buena Vista Social Club release and his 1999 solo debut, Buena Vista Social Club presents Ibrahim Ferrer, the album boasted the same production team of Cooder, Nick Gold and engineer Jerry Boys and confirmed Ferrer’s place among the all-time great voices of Cuban music.

Combining both Cuban and American musicians, the hand-picked core band, comprised Orlando ‘Cachaíto’ López on bass, Manuel Galbán on electric guitar, piano and organ, Chucho Valdés on piano, and Miguel ‘Angá’ Díaz on congas augmented by Ry Cooder on guitars and veteran rock drummer Jim Keltner and Joachim Cooder on percussion.
