My review is for the MP3 download version of the album, as the CD is out of print and the download was significantly cheaper than paying shipping for a used one. I'm always leery about getting MP3s for older music, as the sound quality can be iffy enough even before conversion. However, this MP3 album sounds just fine to me; it is what it is--glorious mono reproduced as well as could be hoped, and not artificially enhanced. It has the feel of an old radio program wafting to you from another time ... Read More

In the 50's, every Monday night, Middle America tuned in to see our favorite crazy redhead and this dark, handsome Cuban singing in Spanish, way before Ricky Martin and Enrique Iglesias in the 90's and 00's. There is nothing new with America's love with Cuban music -- this Cd is a great compilation of Desi's best. There is his "Cuban Pete" (who "doesn't teach you in a hurray like Arthur Murray..").

If you like music with a Cuban flavor, go for this one...period!

This crazy mf has an insane flow! The beats are some of the illest of the year, maybe the decade! His rap verses are incredible, fn flawless. Even the hooks are hot. If you like music you MUST get this album. In fact, yes I DEMAND that you get this album: do it! do it! I, as dictator of Everything have decided. yes, yes, desi is certainly one of the greatest people in the history of the world- compared to him, most people are sucky and futile. Don't you agree??
So in conclusion, please pick ... Read More
