Descarga album by Jimmy Bosch.  I personally had a hard time getting into Jimmy's descargas on this album, which I feel was very different from his previous album "El Avion de la Salsa", which was an album I really loved and got into.

If you're unfamiliar with Descargas, it's basically an application of Jazz forms to Latin music, basically a track with a bunch of instrumental solos, mambos, monas, etc.  Jimmy performed these flawlessly in Cachao's albums, but in his own albums they're not at the same level.  Rey Bayona is an excellent sonero who was completely underutilized here, and "Mujeres Mandan" was a great idea that I also felt needed something stronger for the montunos.

The most interesting track is probably Foreclosure, where his descargas meshed very well with the slow guajira rhythm, that is a 5 star track.

Unas de las mejores producciones de salsa de los ultimos tiempo. Grandes canciones y grandes compositores. Aquellos que son padres deben escuchar la cancion de inocencia.

Ok, para mis amigos Hispanos, este disco tiene ms de una sorpresa, incluyendo al bajista que es originario de Guatemala, y el disco es una mezcla desde rock bsico hasta alternativo, pasando por grunge, con sonido 'orgnico' de instrumentos acsticos, pero con una profundidad y energa vocal impresionantes; Tienes desde baladas hasta canciones para azotar la cabeza. La mejor mezcla de estilos entre Creed, Jars Of Clay, Paarl Jam y Third Day que podras escuchar ....Muuuy recomendable.
The album sports a mix from basic rock to alternative, including grunge, and with 'organic' sound of accoustic instruments, but with impressive and profound vocal energy; There you've got from ballads to headbanging songs. The best mixture of styles between Creed, Jars Of Clay, Paarl Jam and Third Day you could hear ... You gotta have it!

I bought the record  to have something in memory of the "Three Pancho  Singers". Great romantic music of the past that you can identify with. The playing of the guitars are amazing no words can describe their romantic sounds. Truly an amazing "Guitar Trio" of the past.

A mi Luis Miguel me encanta, especialmente desde que lo escuche cantando los boleros de mi epoca.  Yo sonaba con que alguien lo hiciera y cuando lo escuche por primera vez no lo podia creer.  Este su nuevo disco esta fabuloso, su orquesta es de primera y el mariachi ni se diga.  Sus interpretaciones sencillas, en especial La Bikina son fabulosas.  El maestro Ruben Fuentes debe sentirse muy orgulloso por la interpretacion de Luis Miguel de esta su bella composicion.  Los medleys de los boleros son fabulosos y luego los toques nuevos en sus viejas interpretaciones.  Bueno, no podemos pedir mas.  Luis Miguel, te luciste de nuevo!  Gracias por tan maravillosa produccion.  Es una pena que no vengas mucho por el area metropolitana de Washington DC, yo solo he ido a un concierto tuyo y seria bueno que vinieras otra vez.  Felicitaciones de nuevo.

The Sea and Cake es un grupo que esta empecinado en enaltecer al decado Pop, y creo que lo logran, luego de un acercamiento a su msica es probable que revitalicen tu lado ms ldico y despreocupado, pero siempre evocando paisajes melanclicos e intimistas. Nassau esta mas instalado en el lado del Rock/Pop que de otras corrientes, y dentro de la trayectoria de The Sea and Cake, este disco tiene lmites mas definidos, de hecho funcionan aqu dentro de la lgica de un grupo de buenos msicos conformistas pero sumamente talentosos. Creo que la simpleza de las estructuras y la ausencias de arreglos demasiado pretensiosos hacen que las interpretaciones se radicalicen, por ejemplo Sam Prekop canta con mas determinacin, la presencia de su voz se siente mas que the Fawn. Este es un gran trabajo que posee el valor de mostrarse honesto y claro en su bsqueda de otras maneras de hacer lo mismo, pero aletargadamente!.

Many of you have noticed that most of these songs have been recorded throughout the decades by Lus Miguel, Natalie Cole and many others. Even some of the mandolin interludes have been repeated. I am a stauch Jazz saxophonist but this music is so relaxing. Spanish is my second language (even though my parents spoke Spanish) and I know many of these songs by heart. I had the opportunity of singing one song (La Mentira, not on this album) with one of the members in Pasadena,CA circa 1985 ( don't remember his name). This 'Pancho' played the guitar by ear and went through all the different harmonic key changes and chords that most people would have to read. He was amazing ! It didn't matter what key I picked to sing in. What a beautiful voice too! He could sing way up high with his falsetto. I met him by chance in a barber shop but he was already a legend. In 1966 Spanish 1, Pasadena City College, teacher Dr. Rust told us about him and how he quit the group after Eydie Gorme. 'Pancho' told me his story after I told him I was a musician. He was surprised when and how I knew all about him. He didn't know he was a "Legend in his own time". ( It seems like he is the one in the middle of this CD photo. In 1985 his hair was gray, and he was thinner. A wonderful person, musician and handsome man. I sort of envy his talents and good looks ! )

These guys sound great on high notes. I love the way their voices blend together. Their music is so touching and beautiful, it moves me.

Sus voces mezclan bien, y suenan bien en los sonidos altos. Bellisimo, su musica. Cantan con emocion, suave como un susurro. Se puede sentir the pena de un amor perdido cuando cantan.

A really great album his strongest since gringo honeymoon. Bluegrass is the theme of the album but it has Texas all thru it, with Lyle Lovett and Natalie Maines joining in,

No entiendo porque artistas ya establecidos persisten en seguir copiando y reciclando los que ya fueron exitos con otros solo para hacer dinero o estar a flote.  Cuando vi que Lucero sacaria un disco Mexicano pense que por lo menos le haria honor a este magnifico genero, ya que algunos artistas con larga trayectoria van mejorando con la experiencia, y hoy en dia hay muy pocos que hagan honor a la magnifica musica Mexicana.  Pero tristemente y con mucho respeto no es el caso con Lucero.  Su voz, a pesar de tantos aos sigue siendo igual, muy flat, fingida y monotona. Se necesita mas corazon para si quiera tratar de interpretar la musica Mexicana de tipo Mariachi.

I bought this for my mother who grew up with "Los Panchos" and she loved it. It brought both the digital and cd versions so she was quite pleased. Great value!

I have a big collection of Mexican Rock and this band seems the best of them.
Mainly due to Jessy Bulbo and Jenny Bombo. I wish someone will do a reissue of the back catalogue. This is a classic.

Excellent Tribute to El Trio de Los Panchos. I give it a 10, recommend it to any Los Panchos fans.

Francisco "Pancho" Vel&aacute;zquez es uno de los maestros de la cr&oacute;nica verit&eacute; latinoamericana.

El veterano reportero polic&iacute;aco del diario El Nuevo D&iacute;a, el peri&oacute;dico de mayor circulaci&oacute;n en el Caribe, no se amilana ante los aspectos m&aacute;s t&eacute;tricos de la condici&oacute;n humana.  De hecho, como Ellroy, Leonard y hasta Balzac, Vel&aacute;zquez encuentra la manera de hilvanar una narrativa elegante y elegiaca de las escenas m&aacute;s s&oacute;rdidas del bajo mundo.

Sobra decir que las seis cr&oacute;nicas son entretenid&iacute;simas.  Copadas de humor (negro) y personajes reales y humanos.
