Cuban pianist, composer, arranger, and bandleader Ramon "Bebo" Valdés, who will be 80 in October, is one of the great figures of the golden era of Cuban music. He recorded the first descargas (or Cuban jam sessions), composed hits, worked behind singers Beny More and Rolando Laserie and was music director of the fabled Tropicana nightclub, accompanying visiting stars such as Nat King Cole. (Bebo is also the father of pianist Jesus "Chucho" Valdés.) But in 1994, when Cuban saxophonist Paquito d'Rivera came calling, Valdés was living in comfortable obscurity in exile in Stockholm. The resulting Bebo Rides Again is a joy. It reunites several generations of Cuban musicians and it quickly turns into a master lesson on Cuban swing. This is a master with nothing to prove, setting to enjoy the (all star) company and a chance to do what he does best. From danzon ("A La Marchere") to bolero to Afro-Cuban jazz ("Al Dizzy Gillespie" and "To Mario Bauza"), his work exudes grace and the simplicity of wisdom. --Fernando Gonzalez
