I really enjoy this CD. These guys are the Gipsy Kings with a kick. THe gipsy Kings are still great but they're not exploring because they don't want to tinker with their success. These boys add modern beats with traditional ones. They're not as technically sound as the Gipsy Kings, but they can sure groove.
I recommend this CD to anyone who appreciates great musicianship.

The first time I listened to this CD (at a store) I knew I had to have it, I didn't have to think about, browse around, check the price... I HAD to have it! The music is inspiring, moving, relaxing and seducting, that is very hard to find this days and its because not everybody enjoys making music as much as these guys. Some songs will have you dancing (Sámbame, Muévete), some will make you appreciate the good things in life (Fin de verano, Princesa) and some will just inspire you (Arte, Nuestro).

La primera vez que escuché este CD (en una tienda) supe que tenía que tenerlo, no tenía que pensarlo, mirar qué más había, mirar el precio... ¡Tenía que tenerlo! La música es inspiradora, conmovedora, relajante y seductora, eso es algo muy difícil de encontrar en estos días y se debe a que no todo el mundo disfruta el crear música tanto como estos tipos. Algunas canciones le pondrán a bailar (Sámbame, Muévete), algunas le harán apreciar las cosas buenas de la vida (Fin de verano, Princesa) y algunas simplemente le inspirarán (Arte, Nuestro).

I've heard the first CD "Viva La Musica" in Brazil and loved it. When I noticed that they have a second CD I bought it. Unfortunetly my first copy was stolen when my cd player was stolen too. "Sambame" is wonderful, but the track "Eres por ti" is the best for me, because the balanced mix between dancefloor bass and beats and traditional gipsy rumba. "Salaam" is another great tune, where they go further in approaching to the arab rythm, following the path of other groups like Alabina.

Conheci o primeiro CD "Viva la musica" no Brasil e amei. Quando descobri este segundo, eu comprei. Infelizmente minha primeira cópia foi roubada (junto com o meu cd player). Comprei novamente aqui na Amazon.
Tem muitas faixas boas mas para mim "Eres por ti" é a melhor, na sua perfeita combinação de ritmos techno com a tradicional rumba cigana. "Salaam" é outra faixa perfeita, onde mesclam com elementos da música árabe, seguindo o caminho aberto por outros grupos como o Alabina.

Loved their fantastic first CD -- especially since it was a divergence from the standard Gipsy Kings. Unfortunately, they regress back to their roots. A poor showing this time.

I love this cd. The sounds are brilliant and vibrant. It's great to listen to while I'm tooling around the house on a warm sunny day with the windows open and there is a warm breeze. It's like sunshine.

Much better than 1st album "Viva La Musica" (which I loved). More variety and original, catchy tunes on this one. A must have album for fans of Gipsy Kings.

this cd is awesome. i mean i dont listen to it quite as much as i used to, but whenever i do, i just love it. i think i played it too much when i first got it thats why, i burned out on it. but now its alrihgt. its a well made cd, it has a lot of good rythems and beats. good use of instruments to make a pure, well mixed sound. the vocals are really good too. i would reccomend this cd. i bought it as a gift twice already because this cd makes me feel good and happy when i read it, so i figured i would give the gift of happiness. if that doesnt tell you how good of a cd it is, then what does?

As usual, the gypsy kings managed to produce a CD with music that is sexual, sensual, romantic, exciting, adventurous, lyrical, melodical, unique and great for blasting on the radio. They are extremely talented at communicating an amazing energy through their music, straight to you and your hips. This music can be artistic, inspiring, and moving as much as it can be fun-loving, exhilerating and make you move your hips. A must have.
