4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely better than 1 star..., July 8, 2004

Although this cd is a bit different in that it adds some r&b type beats to quite a few of the songs, I have no problem with that. Nothing wrong in adding a different twist to the smooth jazz genre. Heck, guys like Paul Taylor have made a living doing their own style so why can't a flutist like Nestor change it up a bit? I didn't give this cd 5 stars because it didn't necessarily floor me, but it's still a pretty good cd and definitely worthwhile to add to your smooth jazz collection.

1.0 out of 5 stars A waste of talent, June 6, 2004

What a waste of talent. Having heard Nestor since the 70's, I cannot believe he has fallen into the instrumental hip-hop pop commercial smooth music, it is not even jazz. Nestor is one of the best flutists in latin music, be it latin jazz or salsa.If you want to listen to Nestor at his best, get "Morning Ride" or "Dance Of The Phoenix". Or listen to him as a sideman in the 70's Orquesta Novel albums, Batacumbele's "Con Un Poco De Songo" or in Cachao's Master Sessions Vol. 1 & 2.

If you are into instrumental, hip-hop, pop, commercial, smooth music, this is an excellent album, but if you are a hardcore latin jazz or salsa fan don't waste your money.
