I'd heard that it was good, but I didn't count on just how good it could
be! Fresquecito is the long-awaited album from Elito Reve y Su
Charangon which reinforces Elito's inheritance as son of the Godfather of
Charangon. It's infectious to the max: just you try hitting that stop button and
see how you feel!
Elito has a great reputation and for a good reason-
many artists have passed through the band over its 50 year history and I have a
feeling that they are about to burst back to new heights.
Already
knowing the title track Fresquecito doesn't help to quell the addition,
and we continue through the incessant piano of Pachy Junior, violins from guest
Irving Frontela of Los Van Van fame and even a surprise appearance from another
Van Vanero: Roberton. The vocals of Dagoberto, El Sinsonte, Eric Broche, and
Lazaro Cuesta weave rich coros that leave your head or feet for days and call to
you in your sleep (did I say that I love this CD?)
Top tracks have to be
El Dinero, La Viuda, No Te Doy Mas Na', El
Jonron and A Sancochar Boniato, but they all rock!
