"Traditional jazz piano in a live venue. It doesn't get any better than this and the cuban flavor adds to the mix."

"We are all familiar with Bebo, but this recording Live in Duo with Javier Colina is EXCELLENT !!!!!!!!!!.



All reviews are well written except for one U.S. reviewr, who wrote "that this is just an old man hitting a Piano" this reviewr needs his share of "RICE & BEANS" or just maybe go to an ENT doctor.



Couldnt disagree more with him , this is an excellent album , Bebo is eloquent and elegant (AS ALWAYS) without having to proff anything to nobody.



the surprise is their colaboration as DUO and JAVIER COLINA (a Monster of Rythym, Cachao most be in heaven dancing to javiers Bass) Colina is, another giant , wich Ive had the pleasure of listening to for the first time.



EXQUISITE , ELEGANT , JAZZ AT THEIR BEST FROM TWO MASTERS

"I was pleasantly pleased with this CD. I had to listen to it carefully twice to truly appreciate the performers: Bebo Valdés and Javier Colina skillful playing of the piano and bass. The musical selections are varied, but familiar to jazz listners. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys mellow piano jazz."
