"NEW 2000 RELEASE FROM BAMBOLEO, ONE OF CUBA'S TOP TIMBA GROUPS (TIMBA IS AN AGGRESSIVE, FUNKY HORN HEAVY DANCE STYLE THAT SETS ITSELF FROM THE SAMENESS OF TODAY'S SALSA). NO QUE BUENO ESTA ! IS AN ECLECTIC MIX OF LIVE RECORDINGS AND DANCE REMIXES. THE ALBUM INCLUDES 40 MINUTES OF RARE LIVE RECORDINGS, WHICH CAPTURE THE ESSENCE OF THE BAMBOLEO SOUND. THE CD THEN MOVES ON TO 35 MINUTES OF VARIOUS STYLES OF RE-MIXES OF HIP-HOP,FUNK, HOUSE AND EUROBEAT WHICH ARE MIXED BY TOP WEST COAST DJ'S.ALSO INCLUDED IS A SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCE BY MELLOW MAN ACE( HE OF "MENTIROSA" FAME), ON "LO QUE QUIERO ES BAMBOLEO".THIS IS DEFINITELY A HOT CUBAN DANCE ALBUM FULL OF BAMBOLEO FLAVOR !"

Love the band, not the CD

"This was put out to hold the Bamboleo fans over till the next studio release, imo.I'm a huge Bamboleo fan, having seen them 7 times live, but this CD was a disappointment. The remix CD should have been omitted altogether. Extremeny boring. If you want to hear them at their best, get Yo No Hace Falta, their previous release."
