Music reviews of The Best Tango Album in the World, Ever!
Music Review: Lots of Variety
Rating: 4 Stars
It's not the Best Tango Album in the World Ever! But it's pretty darn good. This is NOT an album where all the songs sound the same; there is a remarkable variety in the song selection. You'll hear everything from vocals, like Gardel's Volver, to Fuga Y Misterio performed by The 12 Cellists of the BPO, a strange but enchantingly beautiful selection. I highly recommend this album, but there are two reasons you might not want to buy it. First, if you already own "Buenos Aires by Night" (EMI Odeon) you'll find that eleven of the songs appear on both albums, so look for an album without so much overlap. Second, if you are looking for tango dance music, you'll find that the tempo on many of the songs is not even enough to use for International Ballroom Tango or American Social Tango. A talented tanguero could pull off Argentine tango to several of the selections, however. For dancing the tango, I would recommend
Bailemos Tango!: A Century of Tango on the Dance Floor (Rhino) by various artists or La Melodia De Nuestro Adios (El Bandoneon) by Francisco Canaro, both of which are traditional tango music. For more contemporary, club style tangos, try Lecons de Tango (Milan Music/WEA Corporation) by various artists. It contains a lot of upbeat, even tempoed "electronic mixes" so you'll either love it or hate it.
