Led by ex-Sierra Maestro drummer Juan de Marcos, the Afro-Cuban All Stars have been essential to the growing worldwide popularity of Afro-Cuban music. Their 1997 album, A Toda Cuba Le Gusta, was the first to be recorded during the now-legendary Buena Vista Social Club sessions. A multi-generational big band, these master musicians encompass the full spectrum of Latin dance rhythms, including mambo, cha-cha, salsa, rumba, son montuno, timba, guajira, danzón, abakuá and bolero.
