Customer Reviews:

1 out of 5 stars A SCAM!.......2004-12-17

Beny More is wonderful. To represent him like this is fraudulent and disgraceful! This is the worst cobbled-together piece of drivel. Don't let the cover fool you. This is poppy/remix garbage. THERE ARE SO MANY BETTER ALBUMS FROM MORE OUT THERE. Buy one of them instead!

5 out of 5 stars Great Remix CD.......2004-08-11

As a huge fan of Cuban music and hip hop, I was very impressed how the producers combined Beny More with current sounds. The rapping was great. I especially enjoyed a rock and roll version of Que Bueno Baila Usted. I didn't care much for the lost Beny More tracks, but the remixes and the originals were a great treat!!!!

1 out of 5 stars an insulting collection of garbage.......2004-06-18

This is the most disrespectfull cd I have ever heard. Shame on Anthony Gonzalez and BMG for ruining the work of a great talent. The Hip-Hop drum loops sound horrible, the feels don't lock in with the original tracks. The added junk is louder in the mix than Beny. Would you have the nerve to paint over a Picasso? Or weld some bronze onto a Rodin. Apologies are owed to Beny and his family.

1 out of 5 stars It sucks!.......2004-06-13

i thought I was getting a CD of classic Beny Morý. Instead I got a HIP HOP RE-MIX" of his songs, some recently discovered recordings and a few "classic" pieces.
