5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent sound. Van Van at their best!
In a time of Cuban musician's invasion ... listening Van Van is a must! Dont't miss them.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not to my taste
It is not that this is bad music, but I just could not really get into it. Their newer releases have a more agressive sound that I love with a passion. The energy buildup that their newer releases have, where they explode as the song progresses is not here.
In part this may be because during this time period Los Van Van was influenced by other musical movements...

4.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST OF LOS VAN VAN- LOS VAN VAN, July 7, 2001

This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
Great compilation by BMG/MILAN of late 60's,70's & 80's recorded hits by "LOS VAN VAN". Top Van Van hits like "Hoy Se Cumplen Seis Semanas", "La Titimania", the funky "El Baile Del Buey Casao","Que Palo Es Ese", "Deja La Boberia", etc. make this CD probably the best compilation of Los Van Van released in the 90's. In my opinion the only "ingredient" missing in this compilation was to leave out the 80's Van Van hit "Sandunguera". Had they included this hit song, this compilation would've easily gone gold or platinum!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it, November 17, 2006
This review is from: Best of (Audio CD)
Unless you are a super fan of Los Van Van and know their music, this CD is really bad. I am a Cuban salsa lover, but this CD certainly did not meet one third of my expectations.

In part this may be because during this time period Los Van Van was influenced by other musical movements that were happening at the time, so it has a quirky feel to it. The end result is a sort of acid-charanga sound.
