Tito Gonzales began performing in Cuba, singing and playing the diminutive local guitar called the tres. Somehow, he made his way to San Francisco and formed a band with fellow Cuban expatriates, Son de Cuba. Their new album is a band effort in sound, with crisp arrangements for horns, piano and a rumba line of percussion. Al Doblar la Esquina was recorded in Havana and captures the classic sound of Cuban dance bands, topped with Gonzales' smooth, confident vocals in call and response with his bandmates. 04/19/10
