Editorial Review:
Some surprising cross-cultural collaborations are the main attraction of Bridge to Havana, which documents the 1999 journey by dozens of American and British musicians to Cuba, where they wrote, recorded, and performed songs with their island counterparts. While political rapprochement between the American and Cuban governments may still be a fantasy, there were no certainly no problems among the musicians; indeed, the process of creating new partnerships by literally drawing names out of a hat created some unexpectedly fruitful results. If, for example, putting Jimmy Buffett, Fleetwood Mac's Mick Fleetwood, the Chieftains' Paddy Moloney, Cuba's Augusto Enriquez, and various others in the studio and onstage together (for the song "One World") seems farfetched, for the most part it works. The performances on this hour-long disc come both from the studio (Gladys Knight with various Cubans, Peter Frampton with Alberto Tosca) and from the concert that concluded the trip (Joan Osborne, who did such great work in Standing in the Shadows of Motown, is excellent again here). Given the brief amount of time the musicians had to get acquainted and write material together, the songs they came up with can be a bit on the obvious side, but there's no denying the spirit at work throughout this interesting, entertaining program. --Sam Graham

Bridge to Havana Reviews:
feelin good
2008-02-18 - i heard the song feelin good featuring gladys knight at a club in detroit some years ago. it's a wonderful song and gladys is so sweet, and powerful. gladys, should definitely consider placing this song on any new and future recordings of hers. i had to look high and low to find this song because it is not released under gladys knights name. with the release of bridge to havana, it certainly has not gotten the attention it(the song and gladys) deserves.

Smooth, Soothing
2008-01-26 - Soulful, good music. I love this CD! The instrumentals and vocals are excellent. I enjoy listening to every track without having to skip forward. If you are a fan of this genre, I would definitely recommend it for your music collection.

We need more ...
2007-07-07 - So many of us want to go to Cuba ~ for now the best we can do is

Bridge to Havana
2004-11-27 - Although the dvd is excellent as far as it goes, as an owner of the cd, I was extremely disappointed that not all the performances were included. You advertise Bonnie Raitt in your headline, but her song is not included. This is very misleading - a Bonnie Raitt fan would be VERY disappointed! I would have expected at least all the songs on the cd plus some extras on the dvd.
I was left very unsatisfied, and will probably only listen to the cd in the future.
