This is a wonderful collection of songs. At first hearing though, I was a little suprised. I wasn't really expecting it to be dance music as such. I think I was expecting more in the line of soft romantic ballads with a tropical flavour or something. But I still thoroughly enjoy the music here and each and every track is a good one. I particularly like the Bobby and Angelo song from Tahiti, which is sung in Tahitian and has a very exotic sound. The booklet isn't as colourful as later Putumayo releases are, but there is an informative piece on each artist and their song. This is a great summer album and highly recommended.
