5.0 out of 5 stars Africando Live at the Zenith on a Sizzling Night!
Twelve cameras try to capture, and come very close, the essence and electric sensuality of Africando in the flesh. Without question, one of the best videos of a live performance bar none!

This review is from: Africando Live (DVD)

The camera work is excellent, the lighting ample but not overblown, the band in top form and the dancing is hot and not overly staged or self-conscious. People who are familiar with this African-Caribbean-NYC super group have this added pleasure to enjoy. Those not famliar with this international phenomenon, do yourself a favor and buy it. Then patch it through those woofers and tweaters of your system and turn it up!

ALL THE SONGS ARE GREAT PIECES OF INSPIRATION AND PASSION, BUT THE QUALITY OF THE SOUND SPOILS THE WHOLE SHOW, LEAVING US WITH JUST ONE OPTION:

TO LISTEN TO THE OTHER STUDIO RECORDINGS AND WAIT FOR THE NEXT LIVE CONCERT WITH PROFESSIONAL SOUND ENGINEERS!!
