"Esquivel performs his versions of classic songs from around the world. Though this is not the space age orchestral pop that Juan Garcia Esquivel is known for, it is the man's music in it's purest form. Scaled down, Esquivel's radical sense of musical arrangement is rendered all the more amazing. Juan Garcia performs on piano throughout the album, and gets appropriately wacky at times. He is joined by a very skilled and sympathetic combo including, variously, guitar, bass, maraccas, congas, drum-kit, and other choice noise-makers". (Matt Duss).
"Esquivel's material was lightweight martini-mixing fare, more geared toward suburban easy listening than challenging innovation. He threw in just enough sly, oddball quirks, however, to make one wonder whether he was in fact deftly satirizing the form, or at least using it as a forum to slip in some unbridled zaniness." (Allmusic).
De weirdste van de beroemde easy tune-componisten (zoals Bacharach, Denny e.d.). Al liggen ze dan allemaal lekker in 't gehoor en blijft 't gezellig, bijna alle instrumentals hebben wel iets speciaals, een gimmick of zelfs iets vervreemdends.
