A Moment for an Icon
Cuban singer-songwriter
Pio Leyva has passed away at the age of 88.
Like a number of prominent Cuban musicians, Leyva was really first noticed in this country following the release of the documentary, "
Buena Vista Social Club." What a debt of thanks we owe
Ry Cooder and
Wim Wenders for making that film....and to
Pio Leyva for the decades of music he gave the world.
