5.0 out of 5 stars Lonjas que mueven recuerdos., May 17, 2000

By 

Jeremias Neicker (Gettysburg.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Uruguay: Tambores Del Candombe (Audio CD)

Escuchar el repiquetear candencioso de las lonjas, es como estar parado en Cuareim la noche de Las LLamadas. Te asalta el recuerdo de las caderas cimbriantes de Rosa Luna, el olor a vino aspero y grasa de freir empanadas, el humo del La Paz Suave, el sabor lija de la grapa con limon, y por supuesto el repiquetear del .." Y si Señores soy Aurinegro y si Señores de Peñarol ....(balacatum balacatum chachas..) y todo lo popular que la Dictadura no pudo matar. Si algo queres recordar del Uruguay que se fue, este es el CD que tenes que tener.

The rythms from Uruguay are well known, and here in this cd you will find all the different types of Candombe, the slow ones, the fast and strong, candombe from the streets.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not serious., June 26, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Uruguay: Tambores Del Candombe (Audio CD)

A typical recording done in the Third World by adventurers coming from Europe with a good equipment. The work is not serious, although most of the performers are real drummers. Titles of tracks are strange inventions and lack a minimum of musicological seriousness. However, the text written by Gustavo Goldman (who did not participate neither in the recording sessions nor in the final Parisian editing) is good. The other announced texts are tricky, because they have been picked up from books written before.
