In a similar manner of the previous one, the album is mostly composed of re-makes of some classic songs with only 3 new songs, amongst them a cover.
Reception
editThe Allmusic review by Pemberton Roach awarded the album 3 stars stating "The album features re-recorded versions of older songs, a couple of brand new tunes. Vintage tunes such as "El Sonido Joven de America" and "Contrabando de Amor," in particular, benefit from fuller production and more relaxed ensemble playing—in both cases the manic ska-punk energy is toned down a bit, but the new approach gives the tracks a more solid, danceable vibe... While perhaps not as essential a release as many of the group's older albums, El Arte de La Elegancia de LFC was a welcome return to form".[1]
