Just in time for sultry weather festivities, the trusty world music compilation label Putumayo has put together yet another dynamite party album. From the opening 1-2-3/1-2 clavé of Raúl' Paz' "Mua Mua Mua", which is soon overwhelmed by electronica only to re-emerge at will, the beats are as relentless as they are caressing. The set covers a lot of ground geographically, as Puerto Rican salsa, Mexican and Colombia cumbia and Cuban rumba have long since become international preoccupations, performed by local practitioners in every corner of the globe. Africando, with its blend of West African salseros and New York-based Latin all-stars, and Riccardo Lemvo's suave rumba Congolaise via LA, have repatriated rhythms that came from Africa in the first place. Belgium is an unlikely pit-stop, but Gabriël Rios' Santeria-infused "Bones Bugalu" has plenty of authenticity plus panache to spare. The grooves just keep coming, so put on those dancing shoes, snag an ice-cold forty-ouncer of malt liquor from the corner bodega and swing the night away! Part of the proceeds from this album will be donated to United For Colombia, in support of their efforts to help children who have been injured by landmines. --Christina Roden

Album Description

¡Baila!.is a global Latin party featuring salsa, cumbia, and meringue mixed with contemporary dance beats and rhythms. The party starts in the streets of Havana before hitting the road. Raul Paz kicks it off with "Mua Mua Mua," seamlessly blending the deep grooves of his native Cuba with the contemporary stylings he's picked up since relocating to France. Back in Cuba NG La Banda offer "La Cachimba" their mission statement announcing the virtues of a new musical style that's sure to make you dance. Next the party travels to Colombia, where the collective known as La-33 is revitalizing salsa by reconnecting it to the genre's golden era of the 1960s and 70s. Not to be outdone, however, New York delivers a rhythm-driven one-two punch with The Spanish Harlem Orchestra and Yerba Buena contributing the best of the old school and the new. On the West Coast, Argentinean ex-pats Los Pinguos and Congo native Ricardo Lemvo integrate various Latin elements that keep the party people on their feet.

The next stop on the party express is Belgium, where Gabriel Rios landed after leaving his native Puerto. Experimenting with a variety of influences while maintaining his deep Latin roots has made this unique musician an unlikely pop star in his adopted home. Next we travel to Stockholm, Sweden, where the high-powered ensemble Calle Real is bringing a thaw to their native city. The Africando All Stars and Brooklyn Funk Essentials round out this collection, proving once and for all that the party is right here.

A portion of Putumayo's proceeds from the sale of this CD will be donated to United for Colombia in support of their efforts to help children who are victims of landmines in Colombia.

Perfect from start to finish!.......2007-05-31

An absolutely irresistable collection of dance salsa! The first two cuts are absolutely spectacular. Everything else is nearly as strong. There is not a throw-away on this CD. I took a Cuban Salsa dance lesson recently, and the instructor played "Mua Mua Mua" 3 or 4 times every lesson for 7 lessons, and the class never tired of it, we just loved the song more each time! The entire CD stands up well to repeated listening. It has a nice variety, with a couple tracks having a reggaeton sound, and a couple cumbias, while sticking closer to true cuban salsa rather that the Americanized club sound. Mostly though the sound is pure and true Salsa. If that is what you are looking for, this is a must have disc!

Love Putumayo music.......2007-01-05

This is one of my favorite Putumayo cds, although I love them all. It is fun, energetic and makes my 19 month old son show us his moves! A must for music lovers.

New Style Salsa and Latin Flavors.......2006-08-28

Putumayo always puts out a quality product, and this disc is no exception. The collection of salsa and latin rhythyms is a collection spanning several countries, but all of the tracks are lively upbeat and fun. several of the tracks include electronic elements, such as electric drumbeats and samples. This allows the listeners to see what is being done with a now classic genre to revitalize it. this new generation of Salseros breathes new life into a now-classic music style.
I would recomend this for any casual listener interested in hearing some modern style salsa music. fun to dance to and upbeat and cheery.

TRULY A SENSATIONAL PIECE!.......2006-05-24

This music makes you want to get up and dance! The first few tracks are the best, but the whole CD is very good. I could not stop listening to son fro by africando and many more. Hide this CD because once you pop it in, your friends will never want to give it back to you. After owning gypsy caravan, afro-latino, afro latin party, salsa around the world, cuba and many more i have come to say that this is one of the best putumayo we have seen up to date. Also check out putumayo colombia-It is sure to get you dancing like you have never danced before!

There's plenty of food for thought in Putumayo's delicious new Afro-Latin Party. Like the previous Putumayo compilations Afro-Latino and From Congo to Cuba, the 10 tracks here document the fascinating musical marriage between Africa and Cuba that has seen the original African rhythms brought to Cuba by slaves evolve and migrate back east across the ocean to influence a new generation of African music (and in the process produce offspring everywhere from Croatia to Portland, Oregon). But that almost implies that the disc is of interest to musicologists only, when quite the opposite is true. Afro-Latin Party is anchored by three tracks from Africando, the Cuban supergroup that records with different African lead singers, and their seamless blend of African and Carribbean spices nicely sets the tone for the disc. With Pepe and the Bottle Blondes' wry take on classic cha-cha, "Cuentame Que Te Paso" (featuring a former lead singer for Pink Martini) rubbing shoulders with classic-style salsa from Croatia's Cubismo ("Morenita") and Puerto Rico's Jose Mangual Jr. (the white-hot "Ritmo Con Ache"), the disc is an excellent primer on the global reach of salsa music, but more importantly one that sounds best blasting out of speakers that aren't too far from the dance floor. --Ezra Gale

Album Description

Croatian salsa, Cuban ska, and Oregonian mambo!?!? These are three of the unlikely gems listeners will find on Afro-Latin Party. What started out as an effort to provide the perfect soundtrack to a Latin dance party became a tribute to the global appreciation and realization of the musical ricochet between Cuba and Africa.

Central to the Afro-Latin phenomenon is Africando, who provide three songs on Afro-Latin Party, each with a different African lead singer. In the 1960s and 1970s, the biggest names in African music—including such heavyweights as Youssou N'Dour and Salif Keita—were performing Latin music, thanks to recordings that came over from abroad. Cultural exchange between Cuba and the socialist governments in Mali and other parts of West Africa was a regular phenomenon. Performers like the Fania All Stars and Celia Cruz toured Africa and became musical icons.

In 1992, legendary Africando founders Ibrahim Sylla and Boncana Maïga traveled to New York to record with top local salsa musicians, many who were taken by surprise by these Africans performing and their phonetically learned Spanish lyrics. Interestingly, many of the band members on the three Africando tracks here, also play on other tracks on Afro-Latin Party.

A musical history passport.......2007-06-27

It's a shame that the strong, native culture of African slaves was broken, beaten, dissolved, dissoluted when they arrived in the US. This is a CD that works both in and out of the classroom. The music is amazing, and it makes you want to take an historical tour.

Good, but not great.......2007-03-24

I am enjoying this disk, but it is not one of my favorite Putumayo collections

DOESNT GET ANY BETTER.......2006-05-23

This CD is amazing! i cannot stop listening to it, and when i do, i just want to get up and DANCE! this truly a work of art, and if you don't have this cd go and get it, because you have no idea what you are missing

Wear your dancing shoes!.......2005-05-25

The editorial reviews here explore the ethnomusicology of this disc, now let me share a gut reaction: wear your dancing shoes! This CD arrived in my mailbox on a dark winter day when I was engaged in the dreary task of cleaning my kitchen. By the third song sunlight seemed to have flooded the room, and I was dancing around with my scrub rag in hand! I guarantee it will transport you. This is my favorite new CD of the year.

Great Cuban Music.......2006-05-16

this album was released in 1959, during the time when Castro was first coming to power in Cuba. It is great Cuban Orchestrated music, which gives you a flavor of what it must have sounded to sit in a nightclub in Havana when Cuba was a tourist mecca. Good music stands the test of time, and this still sounds great.

An Instant Must-Have Favorite.......2006-12-20

Until Recently, Bobby Shew's "Caliente" was my favorite Latin Jazz CD. The day I found "Ultimate Latin Dance Party" Bobby moved to second place. This is absolutely the best high energy Latin Jazz CD I've found so far. If you are a new comer, like myself, to this genre you will love this great collection. If you grew up on the Classic Latin Standards, you should find this to be a good collection worthy of a nod from the masters from your youth.

I prefer to mostly hear the instruments and Poncho's band does not dissapoint. Each instrument gets plenty of solo time and is played with such a fervor it'll set your speakers on fire. The vocals are not so overbearing, and to leave them out would be a betrayal to the birthplaces of the songs. It all comes together so nicely you'll be working up a sweat by the third song.

In the end, this collection is garaunteed to get your hands and feet tapping, and may lead to fits of jubilant, hip-swinging dancing. From beginning to end, every song is a treat with its own flavor. If you want to jump start your Latin Collection, Poncho has created the collection to do it.

Fun, good salsa jazz.......2003-08-03

This is really a greatest hits album, with the highlights being "Watermelon Man" and "Soul Sauce". The songs are otherwise pretty evenly groovy, although I'm not as crazy about the songs with vocals. The Pancho Sanchez sound is competant jazz playing, salsa beat, and of course Pancho's congos. It's catchy and enjoyable, and you don't have to dance to it to like it.

Poncho Sanchez Ultimate Dance Party.......2002-11-06

This mixture of music lives up to it's labeled promise and lures you to the dance floor.

Poncho Sanchez Ultimate Dance party.......2002-11-06

Superb mixture of classic dance salsa and listening tunes. Bringing back the sounds of Tito Puente in medley adds to the albums promise and lure of keeping dancers on the dance floor.

GREAT EASY LISTENING SALSA!!!!!.......2002-02-28

I have just heard this album and i simply love it!!! Every single song is full of rythm, happiness and optimism!! Once the first track starts playing you'll feel the need to dance... The album works the same for having a party or just to sit down and enjoy the music while you imagine at one of Cuba's barrios.
If you are a connnoisseur or just starting to learn and enjoy this kind of music i totally recomend it!!!

"It's party time & Puente is your host".......2000-07-14

This album is simply "Classic Puente", with everything you always wanted on one CD by your favorite Latin artist - Tito Puente. The album title certainly fits the criteria for any gathering and festive mood. Many tracks are stand outs - "TAKE FIVE" (Paul Desmond) - "KILLER JOE" (Benny Golson) - "GUAJIRA SOUL" (Ray Barretto) - "AZU KI KI" (Tito Puente), but the highlight of this party is none other than Puente's classic - "OYE COMO VA" (Tito Puente) a live version of the best at his best.

Puente is the King of Latin Music in this sizzling, spicy collection of the hottest mambos and most groovin' cha cha cha's ever assembled for any occason. The mix is perfect, so put on your dancing shoes and join the - "PARTY WITH PUENTE"!

Amazon.com

This 16-track compilation demonstrates a sense of humor--or an awareness of its own cheese factor--by sandwiching "Lambada" between the Gipsy Kings' "Bamboleo" and the Bayside Boys remix of Los Del Rio's "Macarena." The spirit of fun keeps this otherwise hopelessly diffuse set from falling apart while dancing between the flamenco guitars of Carlinhos Brown's "A Namorada," a house remix of "Oye Como Va," and Quincy Jones's Austin Powers fave "Soul Bossa Nova." Those willing to let go will have hit the dance floor long before Beck ends the bash with "Burro," his suavecito mariachi version of "Jack-Ass." --Rickey Wright

Good spread of popular Latin songs.......2005-09-01

If you're one of those Latin song buffs, you might want to check this album out. It has a wide spread of Latin songs ranging from "La Bamba" to "Mas Que Nada". A good mix of ever popular songs and forgotten one.

First Nine Songs Are Cool, Rest Are Boring.......2003-07-31

I'm pretty happy with this CD. I think the first nine songs are pretty cool and enjoy dancing to most of them. These first nine tracks have very upbeat rythms. However, the rest of the songs are older and more boring. Perhaps it's just because I'm young, but I find myself skipping through those last several tracks. To be honest, if the last 7 tracks weren't as boring, I'd give this CD a higher rating.

I think it's cool that this CD has the Austin Powers theme song (track 9, "Soula Bossa Nova") on it. Yeah baby!

Don't be sucked in by the title!.......2002-12-02

This is not a PARTY album. That would be a collection of songs that make people want to feel festive, get up and dance, or otherwise celebrate. What this album is is a collection of popular to semi popular to rarely heard of "latin" tunes. Very few will make you want to get up and dance, or party much at all. Although there are some decent artists mixed in, the album, taken as a whole, is a yawn. This is not the "best party album in the world, ever", not even a FAIR party album. There's WAY better music out there for a party!

Fun stuff..........2002-03-08

I originally bought the CD for Beck's "Burro," which is the Mariachi version of "Jackass." The track is excellent... it's worth the price of the entire CD. The rest of the tunes are just an added bonus (except the annoying "Hot, Hot, Hot"). The CD is perfect for spicing up any party, whether on the dance floor, or simply as background music.

altered art=kaka.......2001-10-15

The changes to the original artists' work on this album cause significant loss to the music quality. What a disappointment!
