Imaginary Cuba is the ninth solo album by the American composer Bill Laswell, released on September 14, 1999, by Wicklow.

Critical reception

Noting the influence taken from Latin American music, AllMusic reviewer Rick Anderson wrote: "Imaginary Cuba finds [Laswell] taking an approach somewhat similar to the one he employed on his Off World One project -- building on a foundation of field recordings, he constructs complex and often dub-inflected sound collages that sound like no one but Laswell while still maintaining respect for the music's origins."
