Editor's Pick:
Wow, who knew they could charanga with the best of them down in Venezuela? This is a very good value: two super obscure and really interesting charanga albums on one CD! The first five tracks feature mostly coro type vocals, and the arrangements are traditional without quite hitting the Cuban sound; but after that, look out: things really heat up! I agree with john Child – some very good stuff. There are interesting arrangements (with solos on electric guitar, Venezuelan cuatro, and piano), and "De Que Te Quejas" starts off with a really cool rumba callejera intro. Nati’s version of Palmieri’s "Pa La Ocha Tambo" really knocked me out, and what I liked the most about the second half of the CD is the Nuyorican salsa sensibilities lurking just under the surface, giving the sound a youthful, muscular feeling that is lacking on the first couple of tunes, which are more old-school (as in 50s-60s). For my money, when the ensemble coros drop out and Carlos "El Grande" comes in on lead vocals, the session really starts to cook.
Highly Recommended. (Pablo Yglesias, 2008-06-23)
