Buena Vista Social Club
Within this fascinating Oscar-nominated documentary, American guitarist Ry Cooder brings with a number of legendary Cuban folk musicians (some of their 90s) to record a Grammy-winning CD within their native city of Havana. The end result is an amazing compilation of concert footage from the gigs at Amsterdam and New York City's famed Carnegie Hall, together with director Wim Wenders capturing not only the music of the group -- but also the musicians' life stories.
