Editorial Reviews

Esquivel's the leading light of the "lounge music" revival! And now RCA's put together a 20-track compilation that includes Sentimental Journey and Harlem Nocturne -both featured in Quentin Tarantino's flicks-plus four tracks from his last studio album Esquivel 1968 , which never has been released in the U.S. Notes and pix, too! --This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.

if you can imagine that, you can hear it in this music. everything which is exactly inverse musically of the 90's and 00's goth and emo kids is vociferated with Juan Garcia Esquivel. Yes, it is OK to be happy. Yes it is ok to have jazz guitar and flute, and what i even think is a harpsichord on one of the tracks!
Not gonna get into technical stuff. Just listen and enjoy.
WOW.
Now where did i put that jet pack?

My partner and I love to have a late afternoon cocktail, put in our Esquivel, and sit back and enjoy. That's REALLY what this album is ALL about.. Cheers, dears!

RCA gives you a sampling of all of Juan's domestic recordings here and the sound is on par with the import Esquivel CD releases. But be warned, once you hear Juan you are going to want to buy the entire collection!
