Lack-lustre Batucada Action.......2000-08-18

I found this a disappointing box of tricks. Didn't really work for me. It's stylistically all over the show with few standout tracks. The highlights were Walter Wanderley and Nicola Conte for their tutti-fruttiness. A whole album of that would be a dream but with Batucada flicking around through genres and decades leaves the album lacking in an overall feel. And spare us that Sergio Mendez: makes me feel ill! The bulk just meanders on by. Spend your hard earned cha-ching on something else. love belle xxx

Latin House Jazz Mixed.......2000-07-25

I first heard this CD in a local record store around the corner from my parents house in Germany. It immediately stuck in my ear.

If the Latin Fusion Wave, i.e. the Ricky Martins of the world, doesn't appeal to you; but you like the idea of mixing different styles, try this compilation by Minus 8.

For me the perfect mix between house, jazz, latin and a lot of other good things. I can't wait for Volume II to come out.

lounge music.......2000-07-06

This cd is definately a must for your collection. Once you put it on it will take you on a trip through South-America.

The rythm takes you but in a very special way. You can both play it loud or soft, it is always perfect. The minute you start playing the first song you are forced to listen 'till the end of the cd.

I don't really know what style it is, but i call it lounge music. Suitable for any occasion.

Be smart and get this one yourself a.s.a.p.
