50 Best Tangos - but possibly 50 worst recordings February 20, 2013
By Charles G. (Marble Falls, TX) See All My Reviews
"I was very disappointed. The orchestration for these all sound very much the same, and highly synthetic. The accordian on virtually all of these recordings makes these sound like background music for a cheap Italian food restaurant. I'm going to donate my copy to the publo library just to get it out of my house."
