About The Process
Product description Following their 1998 Grammy nomination for Best Polka Album, the rhythm alchemists in the Texas dance band Brave Combo have made an album which not only celebrates their 20-year anniversary, but which brilliantly synthesizes their many influences. While previous recordings have explored variations of particular dance styles, from polka to cha-cha, embracing both traditional and appealingly off-center perspectives, "The Process" is a seamless pop album of tightly-crafted songs, wonderful vocal harmonies and always-surprising instrumental textures. Amazon.com Everyone's favorite Texas polka tricksters are back, still having fun after 21 years on the job, and with an ever-expanding, but still joyous, vision of music. There's the usual hilarity--'s "Double Vision" presented as slinky tea-dance music--but also plenty of seriousness and musical ability. The band ventures very confidently into the bolero- son arena with "My Tears Are Nothing," a piece that could do justice to , and intelligent pop (which is not an oxymoron) on "For Me." Of course, it simply wouldn't be a Brave Combo album without some polka, and that gets served up particularly well on "Golden Opportunity" and "Why, Oh Why." But with ventures into R&B and Tex-Mex, not to mention one very warped easy listening instrumental, there's something wonderful for almost everyone, all wonderfully played--it's always worth noting that these guys are great instrumentalists. Call it music for smiling. --Chris Nickson
