Beneath Los Ángeles Azules' bewitching accordion riffage and ratchet-like güiro rhythms lie some of the most wildly romantic cumbias of Latin America. Since the early ‘80s, this amorous party-starting ensemble has remained one of the leading purveyors of the Mexican style, while commanding dance-floor activity as well. In the hypnotic “Cómo Te Voy a Olvídar”, alluring trombone and accordion fluidly interplay while Carlos Becíes' soaring voice pierces hearts; the beautiful “20 Rosas” exchanges the tender whispers of one moment for the assertive high notes of the next, alongside glimmering keys.
