Ray Vega Music

Doug Munro aided by a talented bunch of top musicians create intriguing, multi-layered arrangements of both original and well-known songs. Munro's facile guitar and other lead instruments move in perfect tandem before spinning off on well-thought-out, pleasing improvs which move skillfully around the bossa nova beat in intricate rhythmic riffs. You can listen to this tasty treat many times and find little listening treasures each time. A special surprise for those who want to step past Girl from Ipanema.

There are 12 tracks on this CD: 1. Hub-Tones 2. Lotus Blossom 3. Boperation 4. Birks' Works 5. Dark Shadows 6. Daahoud 7. Blue In Green / Four 8. Stepping Stone 9. Tangerine 10. Whisper Not 11. Social Call 12. Mr. Kenyatta

A collection of new and old standards honoring famous trumpters. Lively, wonderfully executed, straight-ahead and bop tunes with latin rythms generously applied where they do the most good.

I have had this cd since 1999 and I still reach for it (in fact, because i did again today, for the umpteenth time, I feel obliged to tell others about it). Simply some of the best latin. Frohman, Porcello, and Vega, lay down some masterful solos, as well as allowing all the other members of the band to express themselves and add to the excitment, sprinkling percusssion, bass & piano solos througout the cd.

Every note just perfect.

The Bronx Horns are all alumni of the super-great & legendary Tito Puentes' ensembles & orchestras. They are masters of their respective instruments. They play with a great sense of timing and expression, intermixing latin and jazz dance genres, all unified with a NYC/Bronz urban vibe, uniquely their own. There is a soulful & precise playing throughout. However, the playing is never academic or ordinary, by inspired and fiery.

Trumpet, alto & tenor sax (with flugelhorn and flute thrown in for extra color) of Frohman, Porcello, and Vega are the primary instruments hi-lighted. All members contribute to writing songs. From swinging jam pieces and dance numbers to more sultry slower pieces, every tune is a sparkling produced gem.

Enjoy!

It is a crying shame that no one has reviewed this CD. I ordered it 2 years ago on a chance and hit the jackpot. It combines a great background Latin percussion sound(piano, congas, bongos, timbales, drums) with superb horn work. There are some unbelievable sax and trumpet solos, and the tempo varies from smooth and melodic to upbeat. The musicians are excellent and very together. If you like sax, trumpet, piano, and a Latin flavor, you will love this music. For 12 bucks, you won't find anything like it.

Could not make it to Las Vegas, but this is the next best way to enjoy and a truly unique musical experience of sight and sound. Fantastic!

what can l say other than to see Celine in this dvd captures the sheer magic of the show, the depth and clarity of the blu ray dvd pulls out all fine details....the songs and the extaordinary dance routines make this a must own............l hope that anyone purchasing Celine Dion Live In Las Vegas with get the same pleasure and enjoyment that l have from who l consider the Diva not forgetting the dancers and mucians.........enjoy

This concert is truly Las Vegas style all the way - very showy! Celine's performance, as usual, is terrific. The audio and video in Blue-Ray cannot be topped - probably one of the best I've seen or heard. There are lots of special features which are very interesting. This is a real treasure for any of Celine's fans. Top-notch.

Celine Dion never failed to give a good performance in every concert she had done, this is one of it with an amazing quality of blu ray. I never regret on purchasing this DVD.

A Celine Dion canta demais nete show, num palco enorme, com vários bailarinos num figurino impecável. Diversão para toda a família. Recomendo.

This memorable concert was filled some of the bigest salsa legends there were performances by tito puente, celia cruz and many more including one of marc anthony's first salsa songs he sang in duet with La india.
