Description
On “Boleros Inigualables”, EGREM 1996 (English title: “Unforgettable Boleros”, 2000), only three original members of the Cuban band Irakere remain, with Chucho Valdés, an established solo artist, still at the helm. This time, two vocalists are featured prominently: Mayra Caridad Valdés and Leo Vera; both of whom are perfect choices for an album that is devoted to classic Latin ballads. Here they delve into some of the great romantic boleros. While it might not be as innovative as some of their other work, the music makes for a lovely disc, especially when the impassioned vocals of Leo Vera lead the songs. Valdés himself keeps his furious, formidable technique in check, leading from the back (although he does take a luscious, Ellington-esque solo on "Como Fue"). Instead, it's the material that's the star, whether as familiar as the standard "Besame Mucho" or the lovely "Alma Mia." The horn charts are inventive, filling out the songs without ever seeming to dominate. These time-tested ballads are, in fact, hard to forget, and they have held up well over the years. “Unforgettable Boleros” is heartfelt and consistently rewarding.
