I'm shocked, I heard just last week that she was getting ready to record a new single.

May she rest in peace.

I've just recently been introduced to Cuban music, and I haven't heard this lady yet, but I certainly like what I've heard of it so far. I'll pick up an album of hers.

I'll buy it, in that case. I've about wore out my BVSC and Ibraham Ferrar disks.

Dios está bailando con las canciones Cubanas en cielo esta noche, y Celia esta cantando con las arpas de los ángeles.
