The new sound works!
I was a little reluctant to get this album at first since the songs were all old songs, but this is a wonderful re-imagining of Jarabedepalo's (formerly Jarabe de Palo) songs. I especially enjoyed the new De vuelta y vuelta and the new Bonito, though Much mas, mucho mejor was a lot of fun. Depende seemed reggae-er (is that a word?) and La flaca had an intriguing beginning with drums and voices that really worked for the song. I read that Jarabedepalo has broken off from their label and formed their own Indie label, and it's definitely working for them. The new sound is a Jazzier approach to the songs, while keeping the Latin rock sound - made my ears very happy!! =)
