Synopsis
Album Description Digitally remastered of the 1995 album from the Cuban singer/songwriter whose tender balladry offshoots his hard-edged, politically-slanted lyrics. A spearhead of the nueva trova (New Ballad) style of nueva cancion (New Song), Rodriguez masterfully blends romantic tunes with protest material condemning colonization and the tyranny that swept through Latin America in the late '60s and early '70s.

CD ReviewsSilvio is Magic and is poetry I. Perez | Goteborg, Sweden | 09/30/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "...but who could buy a Silvio Rodriguez' Album hoping to find a song by Cecilia Noel? You would be the worst buyer ever. If you buy this Album, you'll enjoy Silvio's melodies that are almost magic. He is an outstanding guitarrist, he has an extraordinay dramatic sese and emotional range. But if you could understand spanish, you might understand his lyrics that actually are not simple. It is just poesy. You'll enjoy the CD twice. And It is not a personal opinion, it is Ernesto Sabato's."
