I love this song, played with emotional beauty capturing the true essence of Mexican music. Ry Cooder is one artist who I can always count on making great recordings.

As a current resident of what remains of Chavez Ravine I can say that this album captures the feeling and weight of the history that surrounds my neighborhood. I've been a long time fan of Ry and he's taken another brave leap into uncharted territory and come out the other side with a work of art. As with most integrous artworks, this album may take decades for people to really appreciate, but some of us in the Ravine can feel it now!
Must have!!

I'm always open to new music. I thought Ry Cooder was back in the days of say Leon Russell (who I like). But this was produced this year! I love this album with only one listening so far. It usually takes a few times. Thank you Ry for all the wonderful sounds. Gotta go listen some more...
Not Great but Not bad

overall i liked it, there are some really good songs, onda callejera, 3 cool cats, and some i could do without Dont call me red, Son Luz y Sombra. Recommended for anyone who likes Ry Cooder, or, due to the latin influence, the Buena Vista Social Club.
