A beautiful rendition of "Haiti" by Puerto Rican singer Lolita Cuevas, accompanied on the guitar by Frantz Casseus. My favorite version of this song remains that of Issa El Saieh, but this is a very lyrical recording only worsened by the audio quality. It would be an interesting little side project to discover more about Puerto Ricans in Haiti, since Puerto Ricans like Cuevas spent much of her childhood in Haiti and established a career for herself singing in French, Creole, and Spanish.
