Synopsis

Amazon.com
Red-hot rhythms and percolating percussion drive the excellent self-titled debut by this young foursome. But the key to the group's appeal is its splendid vocal harmonies, which blend typical salsa soneos with R&B flavorings. Think of a Latino Boyz II Men powered by salsa's congas and elephantine horns, and you get the picture. The leadoff single "A Puro Dolor" quickly climbed the charts, thanks to its rhythmic fusion and the magnificent vocal acrobatics of boyhood friends Angel, Pedro, and brothers Javi and Georgi. Elsewhere, there are traditional salsa grooves fueled by heavy trombones ("Mi Corazón Te Recuerda"), mellow boleros ("Dónde Está Tu Amor"), and spirited merengues ("Lo Que Yo No Tengo"). The bilingual cumbia "Muévelo" showcases additional spice as the foursome show off their ability to sing rapid-fire improvised soneos in English and Spanish. --Ramiro Burr

"The best... A Puro Dolor is just the beginning... every track is danceable and wonderful. I love them! They have a blend of everything. You will hear a little of Marc Anthony, Grupo Mania, Victor Manuelle and more! LOVE THEM! They are a hot new talent, and lets get them to the top. Join my club... The first Son By Four club in yahoo! yippee! I can't wait to see what they come out with next. They have a tour now!"

"I can understand why the title track has been listed No.1 in the USA for so long. This is a great cd. Great dancing music if the rhythms may be a little complex for beginner Salsa dancers. I played this cd non stop for a week when I first got it."
