Bob Marley - Greatest Hits

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Bob Marley

Release Date March 24, 2000
I remember walking around a corner in town when I heard this stuff playing just around the corner by some strange man wearing a top hat with the top cut out with a plaster mannequin foot sticking out of it. At first, I thought it was a retard trying to play an instrument on a street corner; whereupon, I discovered it was a CD playing on a ghetto blaster. I was amazed to discover that this guy actually paid money for this stuff, which confirmed my initial impression that he lacked intelligence. The man with the top hat had a t-shirt that looked as if several paint dyes spilled on it. In the center of the shirt was a picture of this ugly man with stringy hair. His facial expression was that of a man who had just undergone a lobotomy. The ... Read More:

Caribbean Island Steel Drum Favorites

Release Date May 21, 1996
I was initially disappointed with this CD....because it sounded to me as if it was highly orchestrated and the melody was positively on point. But once I sped up the BPMs by about 4, it made a huge difference in what I was hearing. Much better at a slightly faster speed!

Bossa Cubana

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Los Zafiros

Release Date July 06, 1999
That is what we call this album in my house.

The word 'Bossa' is misleading. My title is much more descriptive.

Some really nice slow, ballad type tunes. Nice 50's vibe. Great music to have in the background when you are working.

Master Sessions, Vol. 1

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Cachao

Release Date July 19, 1994
POWERFUL! ... TOP NOTCH ARRANGEMENTS! ... In this album, you get a truly masterful performance from Cachao and company. In this offering he is surrounded by a roster of talent that has only been equaled twice before in the very rich history of latin music. Those other recordings are as follows; 1. "Estrellas Areito vol. 1 - 4", Areito label and 2. Grupo Folklorico y Experimental Nueyorquino vol. 1 - 2", Salsoul label. To say that it is the among the very best Cuban music EVER recorded is truly an understatement, from the opening track to the very last one, what one gets is Afro-cuban music played with a pure passion and love. It is obvious just by listening that the musicians in this album played with their hearts exposed. I was not present at the recording ... Read More:

Mozart Meets Cuba

CD-Charts > Music > General
from: Sony

Release Date June 13, 2006
As a follow up to their accomplished fusion effort last year, "Classic Meets Cuba", the Klazz Brothers and Cuba Percussion have collaborated again for much of the same, only this time focusing specifically on the works of Mozart. If the results are not quite as exhilarating as the first effort, it may be that the novelty feels somewhat worn this time despite the often virtuoso playing displayed here. Recalling some of Vince Guaraldi's work in the 1960's, the jazzy arrangements are once again supplemented with the beat-heavy Cuban rhythms churned out by Alexis Herrera Estevez on timbales and Elio Rodriguez Luis on congas. What continues to impress on this recording is how well the two sides of the ensemble - Estevez and Rodriguez on one and on the other, pianist ... Read More:
