5.0 out of 5 stars The world's Best Accordionist, September 15, 2000

I have listened to Mr. Jimenez CDs, and I am very impressed! But this one seems to be one of his best. When you get Dwight Yoakam and Mr Buck Owens, Lee Roy Parnell and Mr. Flaco JImenez Together, it is quite a combination. MY favorite song is LOVE ME DO , AS IT goes back to The Beatles, and my Dad and Mom were and are big fans of them. All of the songs are great and tell a story, as most country songs do. AMOR, is a beautiful love ballad and I believe will go big with the latin market, also BAILA lA GENTE, (CUMBIA/SALSA) But personally I love all the country/Rock that is in this CD. It is a must have for all of Mr. Jimenez's fans, and if they are not fans, they will become fans. Mr. Nunie Rubio, does a great job as lead vocalist. He is very good looking and believe he has great charisma. Thanks for allowing me to give my review on this great CD that is a must for everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Music By A Master & His Friends, October 17, 2002

If you have enjoyed any of the many records Mr Jimenez has lent his talents to in the past, you CANNOT go wrong with this one....a great selection of songs, I would certainly like Flaco Jimenez to get attention for what he is: a national treasure.

"Love Me Do" is fun and the title song "Sleepytown" is like a long-lost classic. Trust me, you will play this one over + over.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully fun!, November 15, 2000

Flaco Jimenez and friends have offered the world a very lively CD! Although I love the remake of the Beatles' "Love Me Do," and the honky-tonk fun of "A Little Drink, A Little Dance," I think that Flaco Jimenez's talents shine brightest on "Desiree" and "Amor."
