5.0 out of 5 stars "Good Dancing Music CD from Mr. Kaempfert!!", April 19, 2001

I show this great CD to my dad....and we both listen to this whole CD. My dad likes some of those favorite dance selections from "April in Portugal", and he feels confident with that CD. Even one of my dad's friends liked it, too. "Wonderland By Night" is a good song that became no. 1 in the pop charts in December 1960....and that's when Mr. Kaempfert's new big band career took off.

APRIL IN PORTUGAL by Bert Kaempfert is exotic and refreshing today as it was in the 60's and 70's. The classic and romantic directing of Bert Kaempfert in his band is legendary as you will hear in this masterpiece of a CD. The value of APRIL IN PORTUGAL is invaluable! There is not one piece that you won't recall not hearing: Fora De Portas - Sempre Que Lisboa Canta - and the ever so famous Wonderland By Night (Wunderland Bei Nacht). Awesome! Bert Kaempfert began the error of pop music and happy feet. A real king in big bank orchestration!!
