Volume 12 of the Beyond Salsa Piano series is the third of four being written about César “Pupy” Pedroso, and covers songs and piano tumbaos covering his piano style with Los Van Van from 1989 until his departure in 2001. The book is also very much about the history of Los Van Van, with much attention paid to Juan Formell, Changuito, Mayito Rivera, Robertón Hernández, Pedrito Calvo and other key figures in the group. The book is organized by album, covering the last seven albums made before Pupy left the group: Crónicas, Aquí el que baila gana, Azúcar, Lo último en vivo, Ay Dios ampárame, Te pone la cabeza mala and Llegó Van Van.

The period from 1983 to 1989 was a remarkably stable one for Los Van Van. They had no major personnel or stylistic changes and released a hit album every year, like clockwork. The last, and to my ear the best, of these albums was Crónicas, recorded in February 1989, just before the collapse of the Soviet Union sent Cuba careening into the chaotic, experimental, economically disastrous and musically triumphant decade of the 1990s.

An inveterate Beatles fan, Juan Formell was enamored of the idea of imbuing each album with its own personality and narrative arc. Crónicas is one of his experiments with what we’ll call the “bookend” approach – beginning and ending an album with powerful tracks that combine in some way with a theme and reprise to create thematic unity, a satisfying climax, and a sense of closure. The original “concept album” was Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, and even that iconic masterpiece has not fully escaped the complaints of some critics that a dramatically paced tracklist and a reprise of the opening are insufficient to warrant the lofty claims of conceptual integrity put forth by those championing the album. The musical structure of Crónicas is a variant of the Sgt. Pepper’s template – placing its strongest material at the beginning and end, and then bookending the whole affair with two different and compelling versions of the theme song, in this case, Yo sé que van van. But beyond the tracklist and presentation, it’s the songwriting itself that provides Crónicas with its most convincing claim of “concept album” status. The album’s title announces its mission statement – the popular song as a social chronicle1 – and each song showcases a different aspect of this approach.

BSP Volume 12 features dozens of excellent photographs by Tom Ehrlich, Patrick Bonnard and others top photographic artists.
