The CD has nice songs. The only drawback is that only dramatic tangoes are included but not milongas and tango waltz

I am learning the tango and this CD is perfect introduction to the pantheon of tangueros! Excellent selections of tango standards and milonga favorites.

This isn't quite as dark as I like for Tango, but I've been enjoying the richness of the instruments and the variety of different flavors this CD offers. Some are very light hearted but definitely still Tangos. This was a bit of a pleasant surprise. I'll search for my darker one, but I still recommend this for Tango Lovers. This is light enough for non-Tango fanatics and may be act as a good introduction to the intricacies of the instrumentations.

This CD did the trick, I want to dance the tango every time I hear it.

This music is boring. All tangos have the same tempo. No milongas. What a shame! Trying to do routines to this music would be a waste of time. This CD sounds like background music in a lounge.

I was looking for a practice cd for Argentine tango and this gives a nice variety of tango styles (rythms and tempos) with which to practice. it is good listening too.

This is exciting music. Wonderful to listen to makes me want to dance. I sometimes listen to this when I am doing mundain chores and it makes the time and chores go much faster.

These tangos are modern.

These tangos are sad.

Borges judged tangos as weeping, melancholic, and regretful, but it was HIS opinion, blind, bachelor, and big-mouthed. Regretfully all right, Argentinians accepted it, because it was THE Jorge Luis, ho, ho, ho! And we follow.

Can you believe, musicians, bend all over trying desperately to play "sad" tangos! Fools!

And dancers, struggle to put suffering faces, to theatrically "perform" tango. Fake! When the true is, tango is feeling, concentration in your partner's fluency, aplomb, and glow, and you, derive pleasure (and praise) from there.

If you hear, and grasp, tangos before the '50s, "lunfardo tangos" are called, you are going to dance, spin, and laugh, at life, romance, hardships, and be happy, uplifted, and very satisfied, with you, your life and your-self. Try.

The price is temptimg and the music great. If you are a tango dancer dont think about it. If you are a piazzola fan forget it.
I guess the word classic tangos suits it fine plus the production is really good. A non-regreting buying choice i made.

Traditional tango, lots of male vocals. I expected something more upbeat and modern like the Gotan Project.
