The Complete 78's, Vol. 1

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Tito Puente

Release Date August 12, 2008
Holy Smokes! I haven't heard some of these songs since I was a kid in the streets of New York during the early and mid 1950's. These are the recordings that made Tito Puente a household name all over the world. He was the real "Mambo King". Nice liner notes also tell of his life and the recordings. His band was amazing and I'd forgotten how good these were. My feet just want to dance..or move. If you love the old Cuban/Latin sound of Mambo, you'll love this. Great for your next party!

The Essential Gloria Estefan

by: Gloria Estefan

Release Date October 03, 2006
The song Anything For You has taught me alot about friendship. Friends are a dime a dozen and a great best friend is one has been by you through the good times and bad. When you lose a friend along the way then who do you talk to when you need them? I am dedicating Anything For You to someone from my past and through the future. He was there for me in the past somewhat and was always in my heart as my friend, a best friend who I could tell anything and everything to. Having him as my friend meant more than anything else in the world to me. I just would like to say to him now Anything For You. Im sorry for everything you and I went through apart and mostly together. That is who we are today! I love you and miss you always. A friend in my past, ... Read More:

Pasion

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Fernando Lima

Release Date February 05, 2008
Everything about this CD is absolutely first rate. From the other reviews you cannot doubt the musically perfect pitch, wonderful voice of Fernando Lima, but I must also highlight the perfect muscianship of the production including wonderful flute, piano, etc..It is not often where a singer can 'share' the production equally with first rate muscians and neither ever over-shadow the other!----This is a quality production rarely produced in the states anymore. Even folks who only like opera may love this, but it is best suited to the 'classically diverse' listener.----A feast for the ears!---- Fernando, please hurry on your next production, please, and thanks!!

Malo

by: Malo

Release Date May 09, 1995
I first bought this album on vinyl in 1972.Malo's first & best album features some incredible electric guitar by Jorge Santana & Abel Zarate without the superstar overload of Jorge's brother.The Spanish trumpet of Luis Gasca, quite unique for a rock band in their time,& an almost staggering array of Latin percussion makes this album a real musical treat.This is not just a spin off of Santana this is Latin American rock at it's best.I thoroughly recommend it.My favourite track - "Cafe"- it really rocks!! One final consideration,this album coupled with the band's second release titled "Dos" makes a nice pair.

Tribalistas

by: Tribalistas

Release Date March 11, 2003
I first heard and saw Marisa Monte on World Link TV a couple of years ago doing Agua de Marcos with David Byrne. I thought, who is this girl in sunglasses? Recently I saw Tribalistas videos of Carnavalia and Passe em Casa. Watching these people work together is pure joy. Look at the guys sunglasses! Special Guest Margareth Menezes, on Passe em Casa, has a lovely habit of singing with her arms outstretched. Watch Arnaldo Atunes playfully mock her singing style with his arms outstretched. Oops! I'm supposed be reviewing the CD. Well, their enjoyment of singing together comes through on the CD. Words in Portuguese and English, plus guitar chords! I already plan to sing Mary Cristo in church at Christmas.
I noticed how many reviewers said "I can't listen to anything ... Read More:
