Great music. The song Zambra is a killer.

is there any explanation of not placing my comment here? or am I taking BBC too serious?

Brilliant. Saw the concert at Fiesta de Grácia in Barcelona. What a night...
CARLOS, MADRID
amazing, they are the best example of mixing flamenco and new music. Ojos de Brujo sound is unic.
arumdev
saw them live in ibiza (!!) in 2003 and they blew me away! their live set is just awesome, the sound was spot on and the energy was fantastic. I was annoyed when they stopped though :(
jim, cornwall
Bari is just brilliant, no argument, but we do have something like it in the UK... find the 3 Daft Monkeys' album Oomin and try to get to one of their gigs. New album soon I believe. Just stupendous. I got to OdB vis Manu Chao and Louise Attaque.
Mr Tom, Manchester
Saw these guys on the Jazz World Stage at Glastonbury and it was definately one of the highlights of the festival. Absolutely brilliant. Better gig than Ozomatli this year, and THAT's saying something. A treat for yer feet. Just bought the album and love it. Well done guys. Any suggestions for similar acts/albums?
Álvaro Surikato, Zaragoza, Spain
Great, great!!! I saw them to days ago in "Pirineos Sur Festival" and it was so incredible... you have to see them live.
Carolina Urrutia(Chilean), Newcastle
They create an amazing atmosphere, I sow them in Seville three weeks ago, and they've got magic and a special energy. The lyrics and the way they mix different rhythms is unique and dramatic, they send you with their music lots of power. I wish I could learn all the lyrics to sing then and full my self with energies. Highly recommended for all open-mind people.
Lucia, Florida
A friend and I swap world music cds all the time and he turned me on to O de B... great band, fantastic lyrics. I would love to see them live... if they're half as energetic as their studio album then they're sensational!
Ricky, LONDON
SAW THIS BAND LAST THURSDAY @ SHEPHERDS BUSH EMPIRE. THEY REALLY ARE AS GOOD AS THE HYPE (ASHAME THE EMPIRE SOUND SYSTEM WASN'T) - FOR NIALL: The first album "Vengue" has just been released in UK. Available in HMV for an expensive 16.99.
erak, croatia
just listening

I have never heard this album.
beedubblyer, London
Jaw-dropping. How come no-one's mentioned Zambra? It's the album highlight for me, a flamenco epic that starts as a slow-burn and builds into crescendo after towering crescendo, convulsing equally with traditional musicianship and studio wizardry... sublime!
Diana V, USA
Come the US!!
Tom Spender, London
It's a tremendous album - amazing guitar work, incredible energy and very sexy vocals. I am just waiting for them to come here for a gig....
Tutti, Brazil
great! a friend of mine who was living in barcelona have introduced them to me. it's incredible but here in brazil we don't know much about spanish culture. so i wish ojos de brujo can play around here to show us what's all about
Mickey, Miami
Saw this group at the Manuel Artime Theatre here in Miami. It was their first show in the U.S. and the crowd couldn't get enough of the sound. There was much dancing going on, on and off stage.
Miles, Miami
I saw then last Friday here in Miami @ the Artime Theater. Their performance was phenomenal unlike anything I had seen or heard before. Unfortunately they only had one performance. If you have a chance to see Ojos De Brujo live, don't miss it. They are a special treat.
MIkel, London
I love this band, the rock my world since I heard them for the first time. Music & lyrics are amazing. You must go and see them in live, just breathtaking. I wish they play soon in London again.
Jack, Berkekey
Fantastic music but where can you buy it??
David, Dublin
great album. great artwork too - have a look at his work, he's a graffiti artist with work all over granada
Jerry, Kent
This is cutting edge music. What a pity we Brits have nothing like it
Niall, London, UK
I bought their album - Vengue in Madrid, and was blown away by it. Subsequently bought Bari and - though still good - was less impressed. I lost my cd of Vengue while travelling, and badly want to get hold of it again - but don't know where to buy it in the UK. Any ideas?
Bart, Holland
Bari is one of my favourite albums. I have seen them three times performing live and that's even better.
Quillo, WORLD
Like it? Have a listen of O'funk'illo. Very different, yet, great!!!
Michael, The Hague, Holland
In one word? OLE!!!
merc, shrewsbury
Sorry, not a review as I haven't even heard it yet, but O d B were exceptional at Womad and I SHALL be buying 'Bari'....
Martin, Sheffield, UK
Had a holiday in central Spain this year and friends there played it to me. Breathtaking stuff,
