which was heavily South American flavoured, and it is fascinating that he is now exporting part of this 'Rumba' back into South American music !
He sings from the heart, but it is a joyful melodic singing, his songs are uplifting, he makes you feel good, you feel happy when you listen to his music.
You can not beleive that he is from the Congo in Africa, because his Salsa, is very Cuban in style, however once you know that he is African, it becomes very obvious in his music.
I am from Britain and have been brought up on a diet of pop and rock, my favourites were Jimmi Hendricks, Led Zepplin, Peter Gabriel e.t.c.
Ricardo Lemvo is the equal of any of them, he is a great.
I have been fortunate enough to have seen Youssou N'dour in concert, and now my biggest ambition is to see Ricardo Lemvo.
Ricardo when's the next album coming out ?
When are you coming to Britain ?
Upbeat but overproduced.......2001-02-10 I love the mix of Cuban and African rhythms and styles and the music is upbeat throughout, so that's why I rated it fairly highly. It would make good background party music.
However, the CD doesn't compel me to get up and dance. It just doesn't have enough energy or spunk. I think the CD is overproduced, so these guys don't feel like they are having as much fun as they should be!
FANTASTIC!.......1999-05-24 Great show at the Conga Room in Los Angeles, Sunday 5.23.99. This is my entry to win an autographed CD. hope I'm one of the 10.
Afro-Cuban music with el espiritu de la pantera!.......1999-04-10 Ricardo Lemvo, a Congolese musician who sings in Spanish with an African flare, successfully achieves some truly great Afro-Cuban music with Makina Loca. I picked this up in Puerto Rico, where I was told it's all the rage in Cuba. The first two tracks are the most fun.
From Africa to Havana to Paris..........1999-02-27 The beauty of Latin music comes from the blend, the mixture of African rhythms and European melodies, seasoned with just a bit of indigenous New World influences and Middle Eastern tones. Originating in the Caribbean, Latin music spread via migration to New York where it became Salsa and via trade to West Africa where it became Soukous.
Ricardo Lemvo & Makina Loca join Salsa and Soukous into a musical stew which takes Latin music to a new place. African musicians have been playing Cuban based music for decades, first staying quite close to the form, then substituting electric guitars for horns to develop Congolese Rumba and Soukous. Some, like Africando, have come back to the Cuban style, but it is really just copying, ala Linda Ronstadt's "Frenesi", faithful reproductions of the Cuban sound with little innovation. Lemvo and his band, now based in Los Angeles, play something new and unique, a music which has travelled back and forth across the Atlantic several times, accumulating lots of innovation on its way.
The music on "Mambo Yo Yo" can be characterized as mainly Cuban-style son montuno with trumpets (sometimes muted giving that "tropical moonlight" sound), driving piano, even a tres on many numbers. But then we hear the trap drums, the characteristic Congolese electric guitar runs and the occasional Kikongo and Lingala lyrics all of which combine to give us music which is interesting, entertaining, infectiously happy, good natured. Lemvo's personal touch reflects a lifelong love of Cuban music by someone who grew up in modern Africa and the musical melting pot of the US. The international band members (besides Lemvo, the musicians hail from the US, Mexico, Cuba, South America and the Netherlands) led by musical director Niño Jesús Pérez complement each other well on this album which will make you want to find out more about Salsa and about Soukous...but not until you're done dancing!

Cuban, Rhythmic and Hot!.......2002-09-17 Maria Victoria's talent comes through in this CD. She is exhuberant, flashy and sings her Cuban Sons with incredibly entertaining gusto. From originals to classics, this is a very danceable CD. The production leaves something to be desired, you feel her backup should be stronger. However, if you want an upbeat, good time latin CD, this one's for you.

Customer Reviews:
La Lupe: La Reina.......2001-07-20 El Rey y Yo is one of several contributions recorded with Tito Puente, who later became a world wide Cuban music star, revered by many as one of the great exponents of Afro Cuban rythm. When questioned about La Lupe, after her death, Tito Puente spoke of her as a highly professional performer; La Lupe is much more that that, she is probably one of the greatest singers to flee La Habana.
La Lupe and her story are full of colorful events, she left her native Cuba long before political upset, indeed she did not leave but was expelled because whilst performing at a local club she started to strip tease: that is La Lupe. She would get so carried away, so intrinsically connected to what she was doing that she is the author and performer of songs of all styles rendered in an unfamiliar strong, heart felt, intense and electric way. She is the first performer of that era who left aside "beautiful singing" to produce, sometimes awkward sounds but emotionally accurate interpretations.
This CD contains tracks that have become anthologies of her work: Oriente, Esas lágrimas son pocas and El Amo. Among with other renditions always different that one would expect, yet completely believable and true. This CD keeps track of her performing gifts, she sails through styles such as cumbia, bomba, jala-jala, huahuanco, santeria and the very special "bolero". Soft tracks, with lyrics always dealing with love affairs, love denial and loss, constitute a genre of music affiliated with an era, a place: the Caribbean; perhaps one of the most demanding styles, because of the special powers this type of music requires of a performer.
Bolero requires a naked soul, a performance so sheer and pure that one would have no doubt of the truth and emotionality of the lyrics, thus creating the ultimate artifice: creating an artistic reality, true only to the artist and the listener. It is in this style that La Lupe and her powers were most effective, she was a true diva and this CD is a living testimony to all of us who regret her troubled life her untimely death and Musical history at large, not knowing how to place this artist among the very high.
Great album by two great artists.......2000-10-16 When I first heard of La Lupe I said to myself boy she sounds familar it was La Lupe I was listening to. Anyway I've had this cd for a while now and I'm so amazed on how Lupe can sing so high and you can hear the passion in her voice whenever she sings. I've been a Tito Puente fan since 1997 and I hadn't gotten a La Lupe & Tito Puente album until my parents got me this one. I love it and listen to it everyday. It has alot of great songs like Cumba Cumba, and Oriente to name a few. So if you are looking for old time music or a Tito Puente fan this is the cd for you.
