  • I just love that
    author: Edinho

    I really like the powerful vocals, the horn ensamble and the percussive rithm. This is a cd with a lot of up-tempo tunes. This cd has a soul.

  • Very Good CD!!!

    The pieces on this CD were performed very well with a lot energy and inventive interpretations. However, the length of the songs was uniformally quite short. I would have liked to have much longer versions with even more thematic development.
