It’s news to me too.  I present Los Zafiros.  As it turns out there was a documentary released on the group early last year(08).  NPR covered the story here.  I intend on checking it out sometime.  It’s so amazing that doo wop was being made this well in Cuba of all places although it’s noteworthy that Los Zafiros’ career started in the 60s when Doo Wop was already ten years old in the US.  I’ll have to do a post in the future about great international acts doing American music.  I have a compilation somewhere of vietnamese artists doing psych rock songs in the 70s/80s although it might be difficult for me to find something like that on youtube.
