Review

"Zoológico Tropical" by Fito Olivares y Su Grupo radiates a lively spirit, inviting listeners into a world where the brilliance of Mexican cumbia converges with fantastical animal themes. With a 2000 release, this concept creation uniquely celebrates zoo animals through its spirited tracks, each reflecting a different creature's aura. Fito Olivares' alto saxophone is like a thread, beautifully weaving through the infectious cumbia rhythms that define their legacy in Latin American music.

Joy bursts from tracks like "El Paso del Canguro," "La Ranita," and "Cumbia de la Cobra," exuding a playful yet sophisticated charm. These songs dance with your soul, demanding nothing but unrestrained enjoyment. Among the sparkle, "La Gallina" reprises a past favorite, stirring a comforting nostalgia for long-time admirers. The passionate simplicity of "Zoológico Tropical" makes it irresistible – turning any gathering into a dance celebration. This album reaffirms Fito Olivares y Su Grupo's beloved status across Texas and Latin America, as it marches proudly, bringing the vivacious rhythm of cumbia to life. - Lucia
