This review is from: Brass From Tijuana (Audio CD)

It may be by "various artists", but WHICH various artists? There's absolutely no information on the artists (or the recording years) on the CD! There's just the one sided card (the picture you see above) as the insert ... . Most of the tracks seem done by one group that's totally instrumental, the last couple tracks by one that uses a vocal chorus. Most of the tracks sound fine technically, but the last track sounds HORRIBLY muffled as if transferred from a 42nd generation tape copy. If you're not going to care what artists you put on a disk, why use such a horribly mangled track, Madacy??? And finally, all the tracks are rather lacking in inspiration. If you want a Tijuana Brass knockoff on CD with at least SOME redeeming values, search out one of the 4 Mexicali Brass CDs instead.
