My three year old daughter poured rice in a coffee can and joined in on a family conga line whilst listening to "Ugly" (with the wonderful lyric, "ugly, ugly, all the people think I'm ugly/ugly, ugly, even after drinks I'm ugly."

Salsa with brains (no that's not an exotic dish - but an apt description of this CD.)

Even if you don't exercise to this music, it does the heart good.

I am a huge fan of swing but that can get repetitive. Various latin-influenced songs have crept into swing and caught my attention. That is how I found BIO RITMO. And they are AWESOME. The first track blew me away and each song was totally catchy. This is an album that is worth your while just to hear something fresh and new (and performed with energy)

Bio Ritmo's album "Rumba Baby Rumba" is a real treat. My husband and I picked it up after seeing them open for Squirrel Nut Zippers, and we played it all weekend! The music is tremendous - you can defintely swing to it - and the lyrics are catchy and fun. I would recommend this album to anyone - play it at your next party and watch your friends come alive!

A nice balance Salsa CD in were your are to enjoy songs in english and spanish music. Just note the high note form the vocalist in both side of the music. And of course hard Rumba fron this Virginia guys and let my tell you, I know a low about salsa music.Iam a collectible guy.

How can this disc be out of print? This is an incredible collection of Latin dance music that will be on my disc player forevermore. I first heard of Bio Ritmo when I purchased a compilation disc and their track "Call Me Up" was on it. That made me seek out the original disc and I am so glad I did. This is an expertly-played collection of rumba and salsa songs pulsating with hot horns and percussion. And check out the Latin-influenced version of "Tequila" on this disc.

Well, thanks to Bio Ritmo, I am now all up in the Latin dance music scene. Their lyrics are really funny and smooth, not to mention the beat which could make someone without legs dance. They rock! Or, shall I say, they rumba!

Who'd ever thought that I would purchase a CD recorded in mostly Spanish. Well after witnessing this band live at Old Dominion University I was hooked. They have a style that's so hypnotic, even if you have two left feet you just have to start dancing. I recently purchased their newest CD and from what I am hearing, it is also their best. If you like horns and rich rhythm I recommend picking up this one. PS if anyone knows the chica that says "Tequila" on Bio Ritmo's sixth track send me an email, cause I think I'm in love!

This is a good album to buy to see if you like this Latin music that you may have heard about.

There are a coupla "cute" novelty numbers that distracted and detracted from the album as a whole for me. On the other hand, the Latin numbers are dead-on, rock-solid examples of the genre: if you don't like them, you won't like Latin.

This is fantastic! If you like swing music, you'll love rumba. I bought this c.d. after reading a review in a magazine, and now it's got a permanent place in my c.d. player.

After purchasing this CD on a recommendation, it quickly moved to favorite status amongst my vast CD collection. You simply can't be still while enjoying the album "Rumba Baby, Rumba". The musicans and arrangements are next level. I can't wait to see them live!
