Review - Product Description
The rock group originally from Spain, Jarabe de Paio, releases their first album under the Warner Music Latina label entitled Bonito. This album is full of songs that transmit optimism and a feeling of living life to the fullest. The title track "Bonito" delivers messages of peace, goodness and love. It is full of rhythm and Latin flavor, and engulfs you in a world of peace and serenity, giving listeners a different perspective of their surroundings. This album was made possible thanks to the collaboration of Elena Andujar and the group Martiers del Compas in the song "Corazon".

- Todo me parece bonito! Get ready to Dance!

I love this CD! Jarabe de Palo has matured into a quality group of musicians. This cd offers the unique sound of Jarabe de Palo but I found that the music is a little more complex than their previous cd's. This is a happy CD! You will feel like dancing when listening to it. It has so many different rithms and sounds! Bonito (the most advertised song of the cd) is similar to other JP hits like Depende. But there are surprises on the album. The cd opens with Ying-Yang, a song that combines Jarabe de Palo Pop sound with a creative use of the acordeon sort of New Orleans' Zydeco or Colombia's vallenato rithms.

Corazon, the last song is so beautiful. Pop and traditional at the same time! If you like Jarabe de Palo, this is one of their best cd's.

Me encanta este disco. Es alegre y lo pone a uno con animos de bailar. En este album, Jarabe de Palo demuestra calidad. Hay canciones con el sonido tipico de Jarabe como Bonito, sin embargo la calidad del disco se nota en canciones como Ying Yang (con una increible mezcla de pop y sonido de acordeon estylo Zydeco/Vallenato) o Corazon (donde se combina el pop y la musica española tradicional. Un disco que desafia los bordes geograficos y sin embargo es bien español.

- what a gem!

I stumbled upon this group when I was researching spanish pop culture for one of my classes. Man is it good! I nonchalantly ordered the CD, and to my surprise it ended up being one of my most favorite of all time. The songs make me feel good. I love Bonito, Corazon, Bailar, and my utmost favorite on the CD is Palabras que se esconden. Great ballad. I highly recommend this CD to anyone who is thinking about buying it.

- Great!!!!

I was a bit skeptical buying this one but since I love the song bonito I decided to take a chance!

It's great! Reminds me of carlos vives and even juanes at certain points throughout the album but in my opinion better!

Worth checking out!

- What the hell is this?

I bought this cd when it came out hoping it would be as good as the old ones. But I have tried to like it, forcing myself to listen to the songs, but they are cheesy, the only one that is ok is "Aun no me toca". La Flaca, was their best album ever, I guess they set the bar too high with La Flaca and now they can't do anything as good. Depende was ok but after that I don't know whats wrong with this group. I still listen to La Flaca even though I've been listening to it since it came out all the time, thats how good it is.
