Análisis (en inglés) - :
Fans of {\flamenco} icons {$the Gipsy Kings} have been waiting a long time for a record like {^Roots}. The group spent much of the last ten years churning out a sleek and heady mix of often disposable {\worldbeat} that, while perfectly executed, never lived up to the promise of their hugely successful 1988 American/English debut. The aptly named {^Roots} finds the brothers {$Andre} and {$Nicolás Reyes} leading the veteran octet through 16 blistering tracks, bereft of the percussion and {\electronic} trickery that has plagued so many of their previous outings. The family collective rented a farmhouse in the south of France for the recording, and the results are nothing short of a revelation. From the opening notes of {&"Aven, Aven"} through the intimate campfire splendor of {&"Petite Noya,"} the bandmembers seem possessed by one another, trading stories through the only medium they understand, resulting in a listening experience that's almost mythological in scope. Between the infectious handclaps on {&"Rhythmic,"} the two visceral {&"Fandango"} pieces performed by {$Nicolás} and cousin {$Patchai Reyes}, and the pristine (field) production -- it's like an {$Alan Lomax} recording in 24-bit digital -- lie eight men out of time, playing for their country, their history, and most importantly, themselves. Highly recommended. ~ James Christopher Monger, All Music Guide
