Negative Positive
Title: This Misa is a definite miss.
Review: I have always loved the original 1960's LP version of Misa Criolla by Los Fronterizos, but it had been unavailable for years. I bought this CD version by Jose Careras, but was utterly disappointed by his almost "operatic" approach to what is supposed to be an earthy peasant mass. It just doesn't work.Fortunately, the wonderful original version, digitally remastered, is now available on CD. It has a simple purple and black image of the crucifixion on the cover (see the second of the small customer images above) instead of the original orange 1960's LP cover , but is in every other way the definitive recording of this wonderful piece.Look for it on Amazon and buy it - you'll love it!
