Interest in the Tango and its associated dance styles has never been greater, as dancemaster Federico will testify from his over-subscribed tuition courses.

I had previously highly recommended the compact disk «¡Bailemos Tango!» as an excellent disk for Argentine tango dancers."
"I have been purchasing and listening to a lot of Tango dance music for a Milonga I run once a month. If you dance tango you know full well that a lot of songs are wonderful to listen to, but fall terribly short on the dance floor."

"Well there are some nice tangos on the CD but a tango master would have sequenced them better!!"

Best Flamenco

Each artist exhibits a unique approach from dynamic and upbeat to quiet but intense. Having witnessed the rise of Tango Nuevo, the refurbishing of Argentina's best-known native music by bandoneon maestro Astor Piazzolla , listeners might muse a bit that "New Flamenco" is an odd renovation to the Spanish guitar music's storied traditions. Instead, Ottmar Liebert , Strunz & Farah , Oscar Lopez , Luis Villegas, and eight more artists examine on Guitar Greats how Flamenco shakes the hand of pan-Ethnic music, New Age ambience, and--of course--virtuoso guitar playing.

"Really nice CD, purchased after hearing only parts in a store and being very impressed with it."
"Good listening and a great variety of players."
"Soothing music to do whatever you need doing."
Best Latin Pop

Bandmates Joey Burns and John Convertino have their hands in so many musical pies--including projects with OP8, Giant Sand, Victoria Williams, Giant Sand, and Richard Buckner--one wonders how they find the time to create the sun-soaked music of Calexico.

Best General

Amalia Rodrigues is the unchallenged queen of fado--the Portuguese equivalent of flamenco or blues--and one of the greatest singers on record.

So I Googled Misia and found out about a whole genre of "pop" music which I had never heard of before. In my search, I found that one name stood out above all the others. With an open mind and complete ignorance, I played this over several. times. There were two familiar tunes: Lisboa Antiga and Coimbra, pop tunes from the 50's and 60's. They beat - thump, thump, thump, thump - like a human heartbeat. The response in my core is the same listening to Amalia's Gaivota as Maria's Suicidio."
"Amalia is the acknowledged queen of Fado."
"Love it."
"I am very pleased with the purchase, I recommend the seller."
"Not only that her incredible voice and interpretation style made her the "Queen of Fado" for decades, but I find the music that she sings to be one of the most passionate in the world."
"Still I thought I liked Mariza's voice better with that deeper and huskier and at times playful voice."
"Amalia, brought music to the millions."
"My absolute favorite collection of Amalia."

"muy buen heavy metal de esta banda espanola, las liricas son en espanol y la musica es verdadero heavy metal con un toque de power metal,si eres fanatico de iron maiden esto te gustara!"
"Tierra Santa es una exelente banda de metal española... Y para ello todos los albums son de lo mejor. Recomiendo este grupo para los metaleros de la decada de los 80's y de Maiden con riffs de Judas Priest & Helloween."
