Rumba Baby Rumba

Amazon.com
The major-label debut of salseros Bio Ritmo finds the band convincingly splitting the difference between the sound's classic requirements and ear-catching pop moves aimed at listeners new to the style. Heated straightforward workouts such as "Yo Soy la Rumba" stand next to pulsating English-language tracks like "Call Me Up (644-7215)" that sound ready for modern-rock radio stations desperately in need of pepping up. Rumba Baby Rumba! also offers revved-up versions of "Tequila" and Mozart's "Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" (here titled "Night Music"), a few romantic chill-outs, and plenty of sharp arrangement ideas (the fake Brit accents on the chorus of "What I Want to Say") to keep the streamlined proceedings moving. An infectious album that's lots of fun, novel, but no novelty. --Rickey Wright

Try Standing Still ý It's Im-paw-see-blay.......2000-11-10

My three year old daughter poured rice in a coffee can and joined in on a family conga line whilst listening to "Ugly" (with the wonderful lyric, "ugly, ugly, all the people think I'm ugly/ugly, ugly, even after drinks I'm ugly."

Salsa with brains (no that's not an exotic dish - but an apt description of this CD.)

Even if you don't exercise to this music, it does the heart good.

Yay, it is too cool!.......1999-09-04

Well, thanks to Bio Ritmo, I am now all up in the Latin dance music scene. Their lyrics are really funny and smooth, not to mention the beat which could make someone without legs dance. They rock! Or, shall I say, they rumba!

Bio Ritmo - Refreshing change to everyday music.......1999-02-21

Who'd ever thought that I would purchase a CD recorded in mostly Spanish. Well after witnessing this band live at Old Dominion University I was hooked. They have a style that's so hypnotic, even if you have two left feet you just have to start dancing. I recently purchased their newest CD and from what I am hearing, it is also their best. If you like horns and rich rhythm I recommend picking up this one. PS if anyone knows the chica that says "Tequila" on Bio Ritmo's sixth track send me an email, cause I think I'm in love!

What a change of pace!.......1999-02-08

I am a huge fan of swing but that can get repetitive. Various latin-influenced songs have crept into swing and caught my attention. That is how I found BIO RITMO. And they are AWESOME. The first track blew me away and each song was totally catchy. This is an album that is worth your while just to hear something fresh and new (and performed with energy)

A Good Starting Point..........1999-01-04

This is a good album to buy to see if you like this Latin music that you may have heard about.

There are a coupla "cute" novelty numbers that distracted and detracted from the album as a whole for me. On the other hand, the Latin numbers are dead-on, rock-solid examples of the genre: if you don't like them, you won't like Latin.

Who'd have thought I'd be listening to rumba?.......1998-12-21

This is fantastic! If you like swing music, you'll love rumba. I bought this c.d. after reading a review in a magazine, and now it's got a permanent place in my c.d. player.
