Lost and Found includes previously unreleased tracks, several of which were recorded by Ry Cooder during the original 1996 sessions at Egrem studio in Havana, Cuba. Live recordings are among the other previously unreleased tracks, including a live version of “Bruca Manigua,” featuring Ibrahim Ferrer on vocals, The performance, which leads off the album, was taped in Paris in 2000, watch it below.
“Over the years we were often asked what unreleased material was left in the vaults,” said World Circuit Records’ Nick Gold. “We knew of some gems, favorites amongst the musicians, but we were always too busy working on the next project to go back and see what else we had. When we eventually found the time, we were astonished at how much wonderful music there was.”
