From a friend and a fan
author: T Shane
After seeing them live at the CD release concert, I am amazed at how well this album resonates with everyone. Well, it's actually not a big surprise. Viejo Amour is an album with serious chops. Moving, topical and sometimes whimsical, it draws you in and doesn't disappoint. I have had the pleasure of listening to this album as it went through its early stages. The transformation is nothing short of amazing. Keep your iPod charged because this album will wear out your battery!

Wow!

I had the great pleasure of listening to this album and it is amazing! It has so much heart and soul and spirit...it is a far cry from the crappy studio manufactured pop-tart Latin that is out there. It is just not for fans of Latin...the sound transcends genres. It is simply good music...which is hard to find these days.
Definitely pick this CD up. It is awesome.

I went and saw the band play live in San Luis Obispo and was blown away with the music. If you like Latin music you will LOVE this CD.

FIVE STARS IS NOT ENOUGH
author: Brett Robbins
Okay, first off, I know next to nothing about the Latin genre. That said, if music speaks to me, if
it's genuine, if it tugs at my heart strings, I don't care about the genre...it's suddenly the music I listen to. THIS IS THAT RECORD. I find
myself listening to it over and over and over again. The songs are diverse, featuring different tempi, expressing and eliciting a variety of moods (in general they infect you with the desire to dance, yet check out the contemplative, heart-string-tugging Cariño, Recuerdos, and Canicas for a nice change of pace), all of them extremely well composed, performed, produced, and distributed throughout the record for maximum effect, providing the listener from first song to last with the sort of deeply felt EXPERIENCE that, for me, makes a good record great (yes, I said great). Finally--and most important in my book--Que Cosa manages to give even the most up-tempo pieces that element of HEART that distinguishes them from the run-of-the-mill dance tunes I used to associate with the genre. But not anymore: thanks to Que Cosa, I'M A NEW FAN OF LATIN MUSIC!!! :]
