Para Mi Gente - About half of "Para Mi Gente" is every bit as strong as "De Buena Fe", with the remainder being in a lighter, more pop vein. This album also has a strong flow. It begins and ends with different versions of "La Bola", the single biggest hit in the history of Cuban music - 52 weeks at #1 on the charts. "La Mitad de La Habana" and "Te Conozco Mascarita" are highlights from the middle of the album and the final ascent from "Ella No Vale Nada" to "Me Pasé de Copas" to "Voy a Mí" to "La Bola" is very satisfying. It's been released with two different covers, but the contents are the same. --Review by Kevin Moore
