Reviews for Tributo a Los Compadres: No Quiero Llanto
“The album, which came out earlier this summer as a double CD, reupholsters old music with relentless technical perfection. You have to give it space.”
The New York Times
“Taken as a whole this is a fine and musicianly event heartily recommended. If you’re looking for excellent modern recording and clean playing, plus a galaxy of stars that make up the firmament of Cuban – then and now – then there’s certainly much to enjoy and admire In this double CD. This is clearly a project that is invaluable to the literature of Afro-Cuban music.”
Latin Jazz Network
“Septeto Santiaguero teams up once again with José Alberto (they worked together on Septeto’s “Vamos pa’ la fiesta”), but this time as co-leaders, and the results are amazing.”
Salsa Power
“No Quiero Llanto not only escapes the sad fate of less-fortunate projects of this scope, it is also Septeto Santiaguero’s best recording in many ways.”
Timba.com
“No quiero llanto” es un doble disco con mucha música, 18 temas, que consigue fusionar la tradición sonera con gran respeto y una deliberada dosis de modernidad.
