As good or better than first CD. Musicians capture true tango spirit.

I have a collection of over 3,000 tangos from Argentina and Europe. Conjunto Berretin compares favorably with what we call La Guardia Vieja (The Old Guard), tangos of the golden era 1930's - 1950's and with more modern interpreters. These musicians are extremely skilled, their interpretations are superb. The pianist is awesome. My one reservation is the vocals - I can do without them, the quality of singing could be greatly improved. Please don't sing Melena or any tango in English. English lyrics don't belong in our old treasured
tangos of Argentina! Next time, just give us instrumental tangos. Thank you.
