Review

Mojo (Publisher) (p.108) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "[H]ints of reggae and hip hop demonstrate how adept she is at moving the form forward."

Title Note

Personnel include: Lila Downs (vocals, guitar); Guilherme Monteiro (guitar); Max Baca (bajo sexto, bass instrument, drums); Michael Ramos (accordion, keyboards, programming); Flaco Jimenez (accordion); Paul Cohen (clarinet, programming); Yayo Serka (drums, percussion).

Recording information: Fiesta Recordings, San Antonio, TX.

One of the most inclusively Mexican of Lila Downs's albums, this collection includes original material, covers of traditional Norteno music, cumbias, and corridos, and hip-hop cross fertilizations. There are songs in praise of tequila ("La Tequilera"), and the ingredients of mole ("La Cumbia Del Mole"), as well as the beautiful acoustic "Pa' Todo El Ano" and "La Noche De Mi Mal." All are suffused with Downs's characteristic vocal charisma, wit, and intelligence, as well as the consummate mastery of her musicians, and they demonstrate her growing confidence in interpreting the music of her birthplace.
