Reviews:
"Lupe's debut recording sizzlers are 'Canta Bajo,' 'Este Mambo,' 'Quiet Stroll,' and 'Montuneando.'" (Max Salazar 98/99 Catalog)
"I'm pretty sure it was La Lupe who invented the concepts of 'sexy' and 'sassy.' If not, she certainly epitomized them. This Cuban vocalist was scandalous in her day and this recording with Mongo Santamaria and his band does justice to both; the sultry singer and Mongo's killer jazz band of the 60s. Gotta have it!" (Alfredo Cruz 98/99 Catalog)
