This Song Around The World starts with Carlos Varela in Havana and features over 75 Cuban musicians around the world, from Havana and Santiago to Miami, Barcelona, and Tokyo. This track was recorded and produced with Jackson Browne, who explains that "traveling with Playing For Change across Cuba was one of the most rewarding and inspiring musical experiences of my life."
Music brings us so much light and helps us find our way back home. In honor of the late great Manuel Galban, "Un hombre sincero de donde crece la palma", with music, you live in our hearts forever.
