    5 out of 5 stars Perfect combination.......2001-12-06

    Growing up in the early 70s with older siblings, the Beatles defined the music of my childhood. In recent years I have found myself intoxicated by Latin rhythms such as mambo and salsa. So needlless to say, this CD brought a huge smile to my face from start to finish. I absolutely love it! But even beyond my own tastes, this is superb music. Somehow, the Latin arrangements of these Beatle tunes bring out the beauty and the passion of the original compositions in an invigorating way that is both compelling and fun. It's as if the songs were written to be played in this style. Each track features a different artist, and for the most part, they all deliver. A couple of the vocal performances fell a little short, but, overall this is a solid project. The arrangements are stunningly good and the heart and enthusiasm that went into this recording comes through vividly. And if all this isn't enough, Tito Puente is featured on a couple cuts. If you are a fan of both the Beatles and Latin music, this CD is a slam dunk. If you are familiar with one more than the other, I highly recommend expanding your musical horizons and giving this a try.

    My husband and I heard this at a local restaurant, and had to buy it immediately! It's a new twist on old favorites!

    5 out of 5 stars an energetic tropical tribute.......2000-03-03

    I simply love this CD...it is a brigde with a two way crossing. Beatlefans may find themselves exploring Latino rythms, whilst Latino music lovers may find themselves exploring the Fabs...the album carries all the flare of a Beatles fiesta...the first track "Hey Jude" pulls you in, later Celia Cruz( another leg end in her own right) does a very amusing rendition of "Obladi Oblada"...I was almost in tears of laughter when I listened to the Spanish translation..."I Wantto hold Your Hand" sung in Spanish is done as it has never been done...although almost all of the tracks are well done here...it is these 3 tracks that I never tire of listening to, time and time again...the songs are done in both Spanish & English...alot of love was poured into this excellent tribute...which would have been timelier if released now with all the Latin beats hitting the radio...the Beatles were right when they said that Latino music would be the next big thing as they rendered their own verison of "Besame Mucho"...they predicted it almost 40 years ago...as their own music became ever so eclectic embracing a wide range of styles...from India to Motown...perhaps that is why out of all the musical acts in history, it was the Beatles (los Escarabajos) that have most appealed to countless cultures...and the rich musical influence continues as Paul McCartney himself traveled recently to Cuba to further enrich himself...and I dare say he and his fellow bandmates have all enriched thwe world...que viva los Beatles para siempre...un grupo musical excelente que influenciado la musica sin discriminacion!

    5 out of 5 stars An excellent tribute!.......1999-10-13

    This is a great interpretation of the Beatles using the Latin rhythms of salsa, bolero, and merengue. Note that the artists on this album are among the very BEST in the Latin music industry- you will not be let down by the quality of the music. Equally important is that this album is a Latin TRIBUTE to the Beatles, not an attempt to out-do them or change up songs. Even if you do not know spanish, I recommend this disc particularly because many songs are in fact sung in ENGLISH (with surprisingly decent accents!), and those in spanish still keep the same melody as the original songs. It may take you a little while to adjust to the different style of music, which sounds much livelier and full of flavor. The scores are very well put together, and a whole lot of fun. I give this disc a spirited 5 stars.

    This is a great, GREAT CD. Buy it. You won't be sorry.

    5 out of 5 stars Very cool stuff!.......1998-08-23

    I first heard this cd at the dance studio where I take ballroom dance lessons. My instructor put on the song, "No Puedes Comprarme Amor". At first, being a Beatles fan, I didn't like it, but it grew on me to the point where I sing along with enthusiasm. If you like merengue, this is a great cd to have.

    Sin duda alguna es el mejor tributo a los Beatles, los arreglos musicales de este cd te van a embobar y el saber de que los cantantes son gente de FANIA ALL-STARS es mucho mejor!... si te gusta la salsa y te gusta los beatles sea como sea este será el mejor cd que podrias comprar

    5 out of 5 stars Cop it!!.......2004-06-19

    In a word, dope. For the latino boomers who came of age during the 60`s in the barrios of America, the Beatles were considered the best in popular rock music. Almost everyone I know has at least one Uncle who was apesh*t for this group. So it was only fitting that some of the finest Salseros including Tito Puente and Celia Cruz would collaborate to produce this gem. Some of the best songs written by the Beatles are covered in this album such as, "Hey Jude" and "Let It Be", as well as songs I never really cared for but were big anyway("Can't Buy Me Love","I Want to Hold Your Hand"). A must have for those who dig the Beatles and Latin Jazz. Get it.

    3 out of 5 stars Familiar tunes Latin style.......2003-11-14

    One of the most interesting and challenging CD's to emerge from the tropical music bins in recent years was this tribute disc. Take some of the most recognizeable songs made famous by the Beatles, add some Latin sabor(flavor) by the heavyweights in tropical music and you have a mixed bag of songs that sometimes work . One of the problems is the inevitable comparison to the originals. Whenever the song is close to the original it fails to inspire. One such song is the classic John Lennon & Paul McCarthney number entitled "Let it Be" where Tito Nieves's English version is ok but not great. Whenever he ventures into Spanish and kicks the rhythms up a notch the song suddenly sounds invigorated and fresh. The adaptations in Spanish sound the best on this disc; the problem is there aren't enough of them. One of the highlights on this disc is the featuring of two legends who have recently left our plane of existence, Celia Cruz and Tito Puente. Celia Cruz, the Queen of Salsa turns in a superb performance on "Obladi, Oblada" in Spanish that is a huge reminder of her greatness. Oscar de Leon does justice to "Lady Madonna," again mostly because of the Spanish adaptation coupled with his improvisational scat singing skills. "Yesterday," the McCarthney & Lennon song, as old Paul has so requested by the courts there songs be known by in credits, is a lukewarm song that only heats up when the ending crescendoes in Spanish. "Un Gran Amor" or as it is more commonly known "And I Love her" is beautifully sung by Jose Alberto "El Canario". The closing song is a bilingual version of "Come Together" with all participants from the project joining in, led by Celia Cruz and driven on percussion by the timbales of the legendary Tito Puente. An ambitious project with mixed results is the end result of all of these artists offering a tribute album to the Beatles. The colorful cover is a take off on the "Sergeant Pepper" album and features a who's who of tropical music that includes identification in the booklet which has all the lyrics. Recommended for curious or have to have everything Beatle fanatics or especially Spanish speakers who grew up on the Beatles and fans of tropical music. Total running time is 62:45.

    If you like The Beatles and enjoy tropical music, this is the CD for you! Being born in Puerto Rico and a true Beatle fan, I have enjoyed this CD tremendously. My favorites: "Hey Jude", "Come Together" (in salsa beat) and "I want to hold your hand" (in merengue beat). Put on your dancing shoes, grab your partner and dance the night away to the "Tropical Tribute to The Beatles"!
