La Sonora Carruseles
Mucho Mejor
CD
(Fuentes 11320),
Released 2008;
Editor's Pick:
This radiates joy from the get-go, a project from a great Colombian band (well, based in Miami, with musicians from all over the world) that merges the power of Fania era salsa with modern Colombian blast-off swing. Great singing, cool nasal coros, Colombian style, great band, good material, including a medley of Hector Lavoe’s "La Murga" and "Che Che Cole," plus classic tunes like "Nadie Se Salva da La Rumba," and a bunch of originals. This is letter perfect salsa, no mistakes, no bad tempos, no intonation problems; everything’s for dance euphoria, percussion slapping away, the coros accentuating the proceedings, the singer winding his way through the backdrops, everything coming together in a non-stop festival. Put this one on, wash away the blues.
Highly Recommended. (Peter Watrous, 2008-03-23)
