CD Reviews

This CD is a must for anyone who enjoys good music
Jose A. Diaz | Clifton, NJ USA | 06/18/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This CD of "El Negro" Rada is even better than the one he recorded in the year 2000 (Quien va Cantar). Rada clearly proves that he is one of the most talented musicians of Latin America. His remarkable instinct of creating music is what best stands out of this CD, with songs that clearly portrays Rada's ability to compose songs that can make you dance, and sing along the mellow tunes of this musical work. From "Alegre Caballero" to "Adios a la Rama," you are guaranteed to enjoy every song of "Alegre Caballero." I am so glad that I bought this CD, and I am even delighted that Rada's latest musical work could be obtained in the United States, since finding his records is not a very easy task to do. If you are interested in obtaining some of Rada's old records, may I recommend that you search [the website] you are also going to find there the two CDs he recorded with Universal (Black and Quien va Cantar), but that were never released in the United States."
