The Prosthetic Cubans is a studio album recorded in New York City by Marc Ribot with Los Cubanos Postizos and features compositions by Arsenio Rodríguez.

[1] The Miami New Times' Michael Roberts noted, "Postizos doesn't so much reproduce Rodriguez's music as it reimagines it from a decidedly avant-garde perspective".

Club Joshua Klein wrote, "The record is about as authentic as any of Ribot's other stylistic excursions, but it's far more straight-faced and therefore decidedly respectable".

[4] Variety's Phil Gallo said, "Atlantic stands to do well with the disc as Cuban styles, particularly the son, are being embraced on these shores.

'Cubanos Postizos,' which translates to 'Prosthetic Cubans', is more homage than reproduction, embraceable for listeners regardless of which side of the Latin-American fence they're coming from.
