It
is quite amazing the old-time conjunto feeling
Charlie Zaa achieved here. This is something
of a concept album, a study in the Cuban
bolero-chá feel. And it's really
good. This has an abundance of the maraca-bongó
component that is often lost in today's
Salsa. Well done indeed and Zaa's singing
feels just right. With trumpeters Carlos
Acosta and Wilfer Fajardo, percussionists
German Villareal and Javier Ortega, Mauricio
Daltaire on maracas, guitarist Franco Carlos
and bassist Juan Carlos Garcia.
Highly
Recommended
