3 out of 5 stars Good.......2007-02-02

I love Putumayo CDs.
This one is good - not "wow", but good.
There are a few good songs, but I was not that impressed.
I've heard better flamenco, I expected a little more passion.
But still, I recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars putumayo - always good.......2007-01-14

I sent this as a gift to my daughter - she said it was great! We have ordered many CDs from Putumayo and have never been disappointed.

5 out of 5 stars Contemporary Spanish Music.......2007-01-05

I love this CD. Is the kind of music you like to try once in a while to change from the day to day.
I loved all the songs, each one had its own kind of spanish influence. Each one was diferent and good in it's particular way.
Putumayo realy did good putting this together.

5 out of 5 stars Music for the Gypsies at Heart!.......2003-05-17

I can't stop listening to this CD. I listen to it in my car, snap it into my CD-Rom, before I go to bed, when I wake up... It is a great compilation of Flamenco Music with relatively unknown / commercial artists. You must get it! It makes a great backdrop to any party, it will bring the gypsy out of you.

4 out of 5 stars Another winner from Putumayo.......2002-09-24

Although world music snobs still 'pooh-pooh' whatever Putumayo puts out, their releases of the last few years have been pretty good... and this disc is no exception! This time around, it's the modern flamenco sound.... All these decades later, the Gipsy Kings still cast a long shadow on the world of popular flamenco, as evidenced by the forceful opening number on this fine collection, "Rankankin," by Maita Verde, which bears the stamp of the Kings' virile pop-crossover formula. There's a lot of variety, though, and other tracks on here are more subtle and lyrical, although many, inevitably, drift into easy listening-ish "world music" terrain. Almost all of the bands are Spanish or Catalonian, although it also includes entries by French groups such as the Gitano Family and Ricao, as well as American-based acts such as Ziroq and De Madera. All in all, a sweeping and effective overview of modern flamenco, which ably explores the style's rich Arabic and cross-cultural influences. Recommended!

3 out of 5 stars TOO MUCH OF THE SAME THING.......2002-02-11

Two Christmases ago, I was very much taken with Ottmar Liebert's wonderful holiday album CHRISTMAS AND SANTA FE, reviewed it quite positively for Amazon.com and gave it four stars. I wish I felt the same way about RUMBA COLLECTION which, to me, is, after two listenings, not even a CD which I wish to add to my permanent collection. The music simply does not "grow" and give renewed pleasure. It does, however, begin to sound strangely familiar and repetitive. Every number on the CD sounds more like the one before it and the one after it.

The saddest aspect of this is that an original and exciting musician like Liebert sounds as if he wrote elevator music. I know I'm being harsh. This is not a lousy album; it is simply a big disappointment.

5 out of 5 stars Snake Charmer.......2001-03-25

Absolutely love this song, but I have one problem...has this song been a theme song for a movie or tv show? Can anyone help me with this delimma?

5 out of 5 stars Wonderful music.......1999-04-02

Simply poetry for my soul

3 out of 5 stars Dry...but fast........1998-09-12

Don't get me wrong. Ottmar continues to do what he does best--play great flamenco-influenced music, lending his own personal take and a few other influences to the great tradition of the fast and furious guitar, but for some reason this album just doesn't do it for me. Too much studio fiddling, too little wild improvisation. Go for his live album Viva! long before you move on to this new release.

    4 out of 5 stars Flamenco!.......2004-05-21

    First things first. Pepe Romero, of the famed "First Family of the Guitar," the Romeros, is an astoundingly good guitarist, and on this album he tackles the traditional flamenco repertoire with winning results. His guitar playing is superhuman in its fluidity and speed, yet he never sounds forced or mechanical. For the most part, he plays with the intense ragged intricacy required of this music, though in a few places his interpretations feel more classical than flamenco. However, I believe he recorded this in his teens, so some lapses in interpretation can be forgiven. He also proves himself very fluent in the classical guitar literature. Normally, these minor flaws would not warrant a full rating point deduction, and if I had never heard flamenco before I would be completely blown away by Romero, but I own a record by a guitarist (?) named Jose Greco, entitled "Tanzas Flamencas," which completely surpasses this recording. Greco seems to possess a more intuitive understanding of flamenco, and his music is certainly more emotionally expressive than Romero's, as well as exhibiting a much wider dynamic range. Either way, Romero does not disappoint, though Greco's LP is well worth seeking out.

    5 out of 5 stars Beyond entertaining!!.......2003-06-16

    I play Flamenco guitar, and for anyone who knows flamenco - this IS flamenco! Fantastic! A MUST have! Anyone who doesn't know that, doesn't know music and passion - and specifically - flamenco.

    1 out of 5 stars Boring.......2001-09-02

    Unfortuntely, this was one of my first encounters with the "flamenco guitar" and I have to say that it made me look away from flamenco for many years. I found it no more interesting than listening to a machine gun. Not until I heard Paco Peña several years later did I realize that not all flamenco had to be as boring as this CD.

    4 out of 5 stars Pepe never ceases to astound!.......2000-03-23

    Every time I put this cd in my machine I have to brace myself for the unbelievable energy that comes from the speakers. The control Pepe has over his rasgueados (flourish-like effect produced by the fingers of the right hand)and tremelos is by far the best I have ever heard. His flamenco playing makes you want to get out and learn the steps yourself just to see what he's projecting. The only place where the recording is "iffy" is his duet with his father. It's a little shaky but hardly noticeable, could even be the arrangement itself. The very last piece, a duet with his brother Angel, is my very favorite. Played with some kind of double-stinged instrument (like a twelve sting guitar but different somehow) is had a very thick, beautiful quality to it.
