i don’t give a shit either way. i’m gonna go listen to a bunch of recordings of SIBONEY, which started as a danzón style zarzuela tune in 1927, became a “rumba” hit in the 30s, resurfaced as a 60s pop song, got adapted by nino rota for amarcord, got multiple arrangements i think by dizzy gillespie, got played into this century by the buena vistas, and will continue to get rehashed this century because it’s a great little tropical thing that will never die.
siiiiboneeeeeeeey....
i seriously recommend the dizzy versions
also rubén gonzáles on piano when he was 90-something
