Compay Segundo, the Cuban singer and guitarist who came to international attention in the 90s with the ‘Buena Vista Social Club’has died at the age of 95. “Mr. Segundo, who rose to global fame in his 90’s after decades of obscurity, was the most accomplished of the dozen or so Cuban musicians gathered in Havana in 1996 by the American producer Ry Cooder for a recording session meant to recapture the lost music of the pre-Revolutionary Havana nightclub scene.”
