Synopsis

Album Description

UK edition of 2000 album. A sly, understated journey that finds the veteran rock/folk/blues tunesmith pairing his weathered voice & incisive lyrics with the arrangements & melodies of Cuban composer/arranger Jose Maria Vitier. The album is a more accessible stepping stone into straight Cuban music than even Buena Vista Social Club.

CD Reviews

Voice, Beauty, Vision -- Mas Por Favor?

10/31/2002

(5 out of 5 stars)

"What a welcome piece of music is Havana Midnight. Bob Neuwirth's lyrics are clear and without excess. His vocals are intimate and evocative, some a little wistful. We can feel his arm around our shoulder as he tells his story. That Neuwrith's songs recline on Jose Maria Vitier's music is an unexected delight blending exoctic Latin melodies with some of this classic American artist's best work.
Never has there been a more welcome contrast to the uninvited, assualt that has become today's music. I want more."

Soft & Warm

Leighanne Varney | San Francisco, CA, USA | 07/28/2001

"This CD takes you to a warm, sultry night in the tropics. You can practically hear the soft waves lap the beach. You are able to feel warm, wet tradewinds against your damp skin. You breathe deeper, an enveloping calm seeps into your blood, and you think of all the love (both past and present) in your life."

Playing to savor, lyrics to ponder

"previous reviewer maureen o'connell mentions that once one acquires a taste for bob neuwirth's voice, one is hooked, but she doesn't add that it's not so hard a taste to acquire--his voice has a comfortable, lived-in quality that's not only appealing but conveys a breadth of experience which adds to your own experience of the CD. the superb backing instrumentals do carry you off to the tropics, but that voice and the sometimes poignant, sometimes funny lyrics bring you back to reality with a bracing, though perhaps slightly melancholy feeling. tops!"
