    All Music Guide Review

    One exciting thing about asking a label like Blue Note to provide a jazz soundtrack is the depth of catalog there is to draw from. And if that's Latin and Brazilian jazz, all the merrier. Obviously, it will be interesting to see how these 12 tunes match up to the images of the movie, but on its own, this disc is a great sampler of top-notch music from this genre. There's Paquito D'Rivera's smoky, romantic "Panamericana"; Eliane Elias' lively piano romp "Samba Triste"; the artful big-band flavored "Earth Dance" (by Jerry Gonzalez and the Fort Apache Band); and even a thoughtful bit of romance from Michel Camilo (the classically influenced "From Within"). Other legends appearing here include Gato Barbieri, Tito Puente, Chucho Valdez, and Chico O'Farrill. It's the kind of disc you might put in to keep the party going. ~ Jonathan Widran, All Music Guide
