CD Reviews

Hot hot hot!

K. Ambrose | San Francisco, CA United States | 01/12/2003

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Compilations are always risky, but a big win when they hit the mark. To be become a favored CD, a compilation has to have thematic cohesion, avoid any real clunkers to ruin the listening experience, yet spread out it's content to keep things interesting and justify the cost. This compilation succeeds very well at all 3 requirements! As the CD carrys you around different latin styles the common thread in all the cuts is unmistakeable and provides a "concert like" consistency. Not a single cut is a dog, they are all really hot and each cut could easily stand on it's own as a favorite. You will hear many well recognized and popularized hot favorites, and some great hits from less maintstream cross-over artists.
Highly Recommended!!"

Good starting point
