5.0 out of 5 stars Indeed the very best of Beny, September 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Very Best of Beny More 1 (Audio CD)

I agree with the previous reviewer. This is indeed an excellent CD and the best I have heard from Beny More (I have several). The song selections are terrific and the recording quality is remarkably very good considering that this is 50's technology. I grew up in Cuba in the 50's and playing this CD takes me back to my teens listening to Beny on the radio, only with better sound. WOW.... I also like Volume 2 as well (5 stars). Volume 3 is not as good, maybe 4 stars although it contain a very beautiful song, Mi Amor Fugaz.

Perhaps the greatest accomplishment of BMG/Tropical Series producer Domingo Echevarria is the famous brilliant sound, CD trilogy "The Very Best of Beny More & His Afro-Cuban Big Band", Volumes 1,2 and 3. In his seemingly neverending quest to enhance both the quality of the sound and compilations, he came across a "treasure" of "fist generation cuban and mexican analog master tapes" and immediately proceeded to create "The Very Best of Beny More" series. His first result was this CD volume 1. "Maracaibo Oriental", "Oh!Vida", "Y Te Encontre", "Manigua", "Nena Me Muero", "Que Me Hace Dan~o", "Corazon Rebelde", "El Agarrao", "Fiebre de Ti", "Las Mulatas del Cha Cha Cha", "Tratame Como Soy", "Preferi Perderte" and "Que Bueno Baila Ud." can be heard like never before. This trilogy is a must purchase for all Beny More and cuban music fans and collectors. Get them while supplies last!
