Opinion on Buena Vista social club CD?


Is there more versions? Ferrer, Cooder? Or it is only one? Godd sounding? Thanks

I downloaded a copy from HDtracks and am disappointed in the sound quality. It seems rather flat and somewhat reminiscent of recordings made in the 1950s.

Everyone seems to like to rave about it and I just don’t get it. The music seems interesting but it would be more interesting If it sounded better.

sounds better on my Grado SR-80 phones but still not great.

Maybe it’s just another poorly mastered CD.
