Nice introduction to Cuban music. Watch more Dexter when it comes back on for a nicer flavor of MIami Ciban Music

Same here: it's just too long and loses it's impact. |

Noodle, noodle, wibble, snore...  Some musical fusions, such as Salsa Celtica, add another dimension or two to the component styles. This group take at least one dimension away from Cuban music, namely excitement. A nailed-on Ho-Hum from the Nottingham jury. |

Makes me want to spend some time in Havana.
Sounds lovely. |

I'm not sure what sort of cartoons you watch, but in most that I've seen, the "falling-down-stairs" scenes have always been accompanied by the sound of a single slide whistle. |

Well, 'haters' like me need a special rating for songs that combine extreme tedium with extreme irritation. Or maybe scratch the ratings, just hit mute. Ah, yes, that's so much better.

This reminds me a bit of the Baja Marimba Band - in a good way. Smooth and very danceable. And the xylophone just adds a touch of calypso that makes me smile. I like this song.  |

The images on the HD channel during this song are simply outstanding. If you like shots of old cars and classic Cuba, tune in.  |

Every other song from this CD has stopped me in my tracks. This one, not so much.
