Popular! Charanga Habanera Documentary

As I start to prise myself away from Tirso's new album, my attention is turning to the highly rated Documentary by Jennifer Paz entitled "Popular!"

She follows the band, giving us an intelligent insider's view of the phenomenon that is Charanga Habanera, with unexpected bonuses like Haila, Juan de Marcos and Chucho Valdes. I'm desperate to see it (please Tirso, let me go!)

In the meantime, I'll have to make do with this trailer...
