review by Peter Watrous - courtesy www.descarga.com

What a band: Tony Pérez on keyboards, Armando Gola on bass and Alexis Arce on drums, plus a big band of horns. Sandoval has put together a session that's like a descarga; Cheito Quiñones sings. In Cuba Sandoval was part of plenty of sessions like this, and this one works just fine; it’s ready for the radio, nicely recorded and played and arranged. There’s a bit of synthesized horns on this too, for a heads up.
Recommended. (Peter Watrous, 2007-05-29)
