DON AZPLAZU and the HAVANA CASINO ORCHESTRA: Remember Cuba when Myer Lansky and his fellow travelers hung out there? They use to have big time boxing matches in Havana along with casinos, glamour, money, music, the rhumba, booze, and good times.
Did any of you go “bc” –before Castro? What happened in Havana stayed in Havana, along with some of the customers.
This photograph was originally posted on top, but it didn’t look right there due to the dimensions, so here it is with a perspective that is truer to the original composition, along with some Cuban music. The rhythm of this music seems to go with the choreography of the boxers who are actually dancers of sorts. —-PG
