Cómo Fue - Benny Moré

Ernesto Duarte wrote this song of wonder at falling in love, and Benny Moré, singing with his big band, made it his own. His voice is light, high and unforced, and he stretches and delays phrases as if thinking aloud. That conversational timing is what makes the song sound like astonishment rather than a statement. Choose it to hear one of Cuba's most natural singers at his gentlest.
