The Silos' Cuba has become something of a low-flying classic since it's release in 1987. The band's brand of rock & roll qualifies as pre-Uncle Tupelo alternative country, highligh ted by the addition of Mary Rowell's violin. While songs like "Tennessee Fire" and "She Lives Up the Street" have given the Silos a reputation for rock & roll, they also excel with gentler ballads. The acoustic "Margaret" is one of the album's best moments, highlighted by an acoustic arrangement and Dave Pearlman's steel guitar. Show more
