Anyone whos into Ska and Trad. Latin music, the Ska Cubano crew mix it perfectly. This is actually their second album, theyre not very popular over here in America, but theyre pretty big over in England. Amazon doesnt carry their first album, but its self titled and amazing. This is a good follow up, but the first was too great to top, it's one of my favorite ska albums to come out of the past 10 years(up there with Thrill me up by the Toasters, Th escofflaws self titled debut, and God Bless Satan by the Mephiskapheles) The horns on both albums are spot on all the time. They also do great covers, most of both albums are covers of obscure latin songs that the average American listener, like myself, would never have heard of before, but they do some well known ska covers, such as naked city by the skatalites on their first album(titled Ciudad Dormida)and Sammy No Dead by Clancy Eccles on the second(titled Natty No Dead). All in all both are great albums, i wouldnt spend 29.99 on it though,any good indie record store should be able to order it for you if they dont already carry it.I got it for 14.99 at the record store i work at...
