Two Beats, One Soul features music from several international stars -- some based in Cuba and others in the US. And one of the most irresistible songs on the disc features soul man Jon B, who shines on a song that is a beautiful cultural blend, opening with a soft guitar and rhythm section and building into something absolutely special. It is great to hear Jon on record again, and this "Havana Moon" is a perfect vehicle.
Check out Jon B and "Havana Moon" below, and then come back next week when Two Beats, One Soul ebecomes our CD of the Month for January!
