"Maybe I missed it somewhere in the description of this CD, but every track on this CD is also on one of their other CDs. Since I already have "Fandango Nights" and "Between the Waters," buying this CD was a big waste of money. I love their music, but not only is this CD just a re-hash of their other CDs, but on this one they've teamed up with some hack novel writer. This self-important writer makes sure you read the opening paragraphs to his novel by printing them on the back cover of the CD, printing them inside the liner notes, and (get this) doing a voiceover of the same hackneyed paragraphs over the first track on the CD. Sheesh. Willie & Lobo would have done better to get rid of this writer and put out a CD of new material (or at least make it clear that this CD is an anthology of previously released tracks). Summary: The music is great (as usual), but if you already have any of their other CDs, bypass this one."
Fandango Nights is sublimely fantastic!!

"As a typical baby boomer - age 47 now - I grew up on and still love Motown music, Beach Boys, Beatles, etc. But Willie & Lobo offer a complex selection of sophisticated music that is soothing, uplifting, inspired, and above all entertaining. I listen to their music more than anything else now - and always while I'm on the computer. I chose Fandango Nights to be playing in the background during my Florida wedding last year. It is romantic, sensual, vivid, and great for dancing!"

"This is a terrific CD, whether or not the songs are from Puert Vallarta, and whether or not you have the songs on another of their CD's, it's a wonderful compilation. I find the music exotic and relaxing......guitar picking at it's best. It helps me regain my sanity on the commute home from work. (It makes you want to dance around with a rose in your teeth!) I've hooked my friends with this CD as a gift."

"Just saw these guys last weekend and kicking myself all the way home that I didn't find them sooner~ Turn this CD on, and you will be swept away to the breezy sea air on the beautiful Banderas Bay in Puerta Vallarta...it's a relaxing siesta or a jazzy tango - you pick, the music will take you there!"

"I live in Mexico, and this music has nothing to do with Puerto Vallarta. It is more spanish. Still, it is goergeous. I love the first song, i think it is one of the most passionate songs i've ever dance to. I love it and i highly recommended. It brought shivers when i frist heard it and i've bought 4 for gifts!!!! LOVE IT."
