What amazes me about this CD is the completeness of it....there isn't one misstep.

"Beautiful Maria of My Soul" will haunt your dreams and the other cuts will make you want to get out of your seat and join in the fun.

Antonio Banderas did a marvelous job with the "Maria" vocals....I'd like to hear more of him!

This is a feel-good CD from beginning to end. Enjoy!

Movie??? I didn't even see it, but the tracks here are hard to beat. Tunes like "Mambo Caliente" and "Tea for Two" are the fuel of dance halls - go nuts!!! Besides being just purely energetic latin music, the disc serves as an adequate introduction to artists like Tito Puente, Arturo Sandoval, Celia Cruz, Mambo All-Stars, and even Antonio Banderas himself! Get ready to mambo in style with this CD.

Hi Antonio Banderas sings with a beautiful voice and I loved Los Lobos version of the song Maria also I bought the CD for that song and I love it. The rest of the songs are very upbeat and you have to dance to them. Warm Regards: Cathy Alexander(NH)

I bought this CD for this one song, offered in two versions. The English version by Los Lobos and the Spanish version sung by Antonio Banderas. The songs are as fresh today as when they were first released.

The other songs are great, too, but that one song is my favorite!

Bought it because I saw Mambo Kings and liked the absolutely gorgeous "Beautiful Maria of My Soul" but found the rest of the cd is good, too. My other favorites are Guantanmera and Bella Maria de mi Alma, the spanish version of Beautiful Maria of My Soul. I recommend it. It puts me in a good mood every time I hear it.

It's great, I mean, most of it was really great!! It's cheaper if you get this in HMV or probably the Virgin Records though.

from the deep latin rythms pulsing throught the room it's impossible to passively listen to this album. Threee bars into the first song I found myself twirling around the room with my invisible dancer and digging the latino jive

very good stuff.. alot of nice guitar songs.. they have good voices.

I was very pleased to be able to get a copy of the original CD. This music brings back a lot of fond memories.

One of my all-time favorite soundtracks...so glad to have found another copy. I dare anyone to listen to this and stay in a dark mood.
