Hit: 4 Stars
This CD is necessarily full of contradictions due to what the movie portrays. Here is what the music is not: it is not an authentic representation of Cuban music (and the movie is most definitely not an authentic representation of Latin dance). However, I would disagree that the mix of English and Spanish prevents the music from being authentic or valid Latin music. A lot of reggaeton, salsa, bachata and most other forms of Latin music are incorporating English and Spanglish - including popular Latin music artists from Daddy Yankee to Aventura - and they are still definitely considered authentic Latin music (or at least valid interpretations). Now, some people are "purists" in that they prefer their Latin music to be in Spanish with minimal mixing of music genres. The validity of mixing musical genres - especially Latin and American - is a big debate and is really a matter of perspective and personal preference. However, for those that don't consider themselves purists or who are at least looking to overlook it once in a while, this CD has many enjoyable tracks and combines some reggaeton, hip-hop, cha-cha-cha, Latin pop, and ballads all onto one CD - definitely a soundtrack. My biggest complaint is not the music but the movie itself - that is most definitely not Latin or Cuban dance (or even ballroom dance). So buy the CD for some enjoyable music, but be intelligent enough not to look for authentic Cuban music in a "Dirty Dancing" soundtrack.Free Music Review: 6 stars

I bought this after catching the film, Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights, on late night TV. I thought the movie was a real stinker, but I loved the soundtrack. It's a little overproduced, but it's what I expected: hot Latin sounds for Anglo ears that don't know any better. I love the CD and often listen to it on my stereo while watching The Price Is Right with the TV audio on mute. But now with Bob Barker retired, I may listen to the CD during Wheel of Fortune, instead.Free Music Review: Dirty Dancing: Havana Nights
