Mongo Santamaria — Our Man In Havana

Our Man In Havana

Mongo Santamaria
Latin Jazz 1959

Our Man in Havana (1958) is a novel set in Cuba by the English author Graham Greene. Greene uses the novel to mock intelligence services, especially the British MI6, and their willingness to believe reports from their local informants.

Picked by
“This is kind of a legendary record, Mongo Santamaria, going back to Cuba. And it has a kind of very exotic and collectible phrase on the back. It says, as if this is a good thing, 'Recorded under the personal supervision of the Fidel Castro regime.'”
