Does Ry + His Son Always Have to Jam Along?
It's great Ry seeks out little-known but great musicians, whether the
Cuban musicians in this film, or African guitarist Ali Farka Toure, but
I can't help but get the feeling that the music on his projects would
best be served without him (and now his son) jamming along. For
example, it just seems a little awkward & silly, that with all the
great Cuban percussionists, Afro-Cuban beats etc they must have
encountered, we have to listen to mediocre Joachim's drumming 99% of
the time.
