Xavier Cugat--a classic film favorite!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Golden Classics (Audio CD)
If you have watched a lot of classic films from the 40s you have probably seen Xavier Cugat and his band appearing in some of them (like "A Date With Judy," "Mexican Holiday," and some of the Esther Williams movies). You will also have heard some of the music from this CD. If you like the latin nightclub scenes from 40s classic films, you will probably like this CD as well. Sure, the music seems kind of campy now, but listening to this CD is kinda relaxing -- a remnant from a simpler time (at least on celluloid). Tune into that Hollywood Golden Era vibe.I recommend this CD, it's one of my favorites. It is also good for ballroom dancing (vintage rhumba, tango, mambo, samba) since Xavier Cugat played mainly for dancers and uses even tempos.

Nostalgia Done Well!!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Golden Classics (Audio CD)
The music on this CD is extremely well produced. Nostalgia from early music, the vocals performed in orginal spanish by early spanish stars of their day.
Some music on this disc might be remembered being used in the film, "Bye Bye Brasil." No punchy studio posturings, just simple elegant music performed at first part of his career. Thomas Lee |
