2.0 out of 5 stars Not What I Was Expecting--At All, March 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Free Roots (Audio CD)

Wow! This is a bad surprise. I have seen Omar in concert twice and consider myself a huge fan. The first concert I saw with Omar and John Santos was pure magic. This CD is NOTHING like what I heard in concert. The first song is hip-hop jazz. Cool, but not what I was expecting from Omar Sosa at all. My advice; listen carefully to the music samples and see what you think. You may like it. As for myself, I wish I had listened a lot more carefully before I bought. I thought I knew all about Omar Sosa and knew what I was buying. WRONG. Some of the tracks are good. Some I just hate. That's life in the food chain...

5.0 out of 5 stars Exelent!, August 23, 1999

Cuando se comprende las raices de esta musica, el espiritu con que fue creada, se podra entender a fondo la creatividad y el sentir, talento de estos musicos de antano y de los actuales que hoy son guiados por Omar Sosa. Me encontraba en un bar en Tokyo cuando se escucho los primeros compases de este album, salte de mi silla y procure por el nombre de este grupo. Omar Sosa! claro! Afro-america implicita. Adelante Omar!
