(ripped from original cassette)
'Florencio Baro' was born in the Cuban province of Matanzas, and was enmeshed in the fabric of the Afro-Cuban traditions there. He arrived in Miami in the Mariel boat lift of 1980.
Side A of this cassette contains the style of Lucumí music known as "Toque Güiro", played with 'Chekere'/'Shekere' & conga drums. There are songs for nine Orisha.
Side B features 'Florencio Baro' playing some melodic drum solos which recite various folkloric traditions.
Interesting recording, but not astonishing.

Your collection never ceases to amaze me. The cubans would have to go to
