Rumbantela Orquesta
Entre Amigos
CD
(Rumbantela 82546),
Released 2008;
Editor's Pick:
This is a very good commercial salsa album with touches of Cuba and Colombia, a fitting mix as the album was recorded in Miami and Medellín and features musicians from Cuba and Colombia, as well as Peru. There is little original material here, however; the tune “Homenaje” says it all – this is a homage to classic Latin music, and there is a mix of mambo, son montuno, cumbia, and 70s Nuyorican salsa, with a particularly hot version of Cortijo’s “El Chivo de La Campana.” Quite a few dance floor burners here, the best being the opener “Me movió El Piso” that reminds you of the best Sonora Carruselles; “Que No Muera El Son,” which is paced just right for dancers and sports a great arrangement; and the slamming cover of “Ay Que Bueno.” I am always excited when a baritone sax is in full effect, and the muscular trombone lines help propel things along nicely – overall a very bright, fast, snappy sound. With Dante Vargas, Alberto Barros, Alex Duque, Pablo Grajales and others.
Recommended. (Pablo Yglesias, 2008-04-30)
