COMMUNITY REVIEWS

The best!! submitted by krayla on June 20, 2013, 8:29pm This album is seriously the best. It has so much musical talent, and if you ever get the chance to watch the documentary on some of the musicians, it brings even magic to the listening experience. Some might dislike a few songs because they are highly repetitive, but I think they transform into a groove that you wish would never end! You don't need to know Spanish to appreciate this album, but knowing it makes it just that much better.

Latin Jazz Kings submitted by purchasingqueen on June 30, 2016, 2:43pm Ry Cooder put these gentlemen, already famous in their own right, on the wold map with this recording. It is a must-listen! So few of the artists are still with us. So lucky we have this recording to savor their talent.

Such skill and spirit submitted by ccrose on August 27, 2019, 7:11pm It was probably like a second life for these musicians who had put away their instruments. And the performances have lots of fire. So get up and dance!!
