Azucar Negra: Exceso De Equipaje CD & DVD

"Another heap of non-stop timba from one of the great second generation Cuban timba bands, one that keeps going, due in part to the nonpareil ear of the leader Leonel Limonta. Limonta cranks out unforgettable songs, and has a way with the cool coro; as a talent scout, he’s no slouch either, regularly picking singers that can rock the house. This is noisy, no-prisoners-accepted timba, working on a bunch of rhythmic levels, the coro floating tranquilly through the rhythmic mayhem of the percussion, the erratic movement of the bass, the pointillism of the horns and keyboards. The male singers are a bit hysterical, giving a sense of wildness to the songs on which they’re featured; Aylin Mulgas, the woman singer, is a bit more relaxed; they all bring it totally, and contribute to the first great timba album of the year, an album loaded with soon to be classic material. Comes with a DVD of live material."
Highly Recommended."
