Cuba is one of those albums that, in the years since its release, has become a kind of talisman among true music fans. Its mention elicits nods of approval and agreement from like-minded souls, and kicks the next phase of the conversation into enthusiastic high gear. When you meet people of taste who are unfamiliar with it, the prospect of turning them onto it becomes a palpable pleasure. Because you know that Cuba exists inside everyone, and this extraordinary album can take you there. It's a journey filled with longing and loss, warmth and wonder - and whether everything happens for a reason or not, albums like this are a document, a memory map, of why we want to think so. - Anthony DeCurtis
