La Radiolina

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Manu Chao

Release Date September 04, 2007
I heard this album a few months ago on the inflight entertainment of a long flight I was on. I'd heard most of what else was on display and wanted something new. Well, first thing I decided on listening to it was that I was going to get every other album of his. It is fantastic!

Manu Chao is of French/Spanish origin, and sings in both languages, sometimes in English also. His music is generally upbeat, party music with influences of Punk, Ska, and even Polka, and political lyrical undertones. "La Radiolina" is Italian for small radio.

Opening is the rousing Polka tinged "13 dias". "Tristeza Maleza" is a bouncy rocker with electronic flourishes and lyrics that mention George Bush (I have a hunch it's not too flattering, ... Read More:

Insomniac

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Enrique Iglesias

Release Date June 12, 2007
Insomniac seems to have a slower pace than than his previous efforts, but it all blends together quite well, with tracks oscillating between exuberant dance anthems and softly spoken, well arranged ballads. The album concludes, as per usual, with a series of earlier tracks in Spanish and two remixes.

With this album, I'm always reminded of a commercial for the MTV show Rob and Big, where the two leading men enter a drive-thru car wash where no one can see them and blast the song "Do You Know (The Ping Pong Song)" on maximum volume as they dance in their seats and sing along. Once the machine wash is finished and their car exits the tunnel, they turn to one another and agree to keep it a secret. Yes, I'm going for a point here. ... Read More:

Arde el Cielo (CD + DVD)

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Mana

Release Date April 29, 2008
I went to 2 of Mana's concerts in Houston. Both times were just electric. While the video put me in the same atmosphere, I feel the song choice could have been a little better. Much of the album reminded me too much of the Mana en vivo album with much of the song selection coming from that album (el rey, vivir sin aire, rayando el sol, and donde jugaran los ninos (loved that one though)). I do wish they had a couple of Alex songs from the Amar es Combatir album as well as other big hits. Maybe even show the Alex solo from PR. If you didnt go to the concert and bought this DVD you're totally missing out on some of the best stuff. If they came out with a part 2 with some of the other songs, I know it would be better than part one. Even the Accesso ... Read More:

The Best of Paolo Conte

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Paolo Conte

Release Date June 09, 1998
I don't understand Italian, but the music is universal. The piano is "electric", the beat is ever present, the boogie woogie is contagious, the ambiance is plain fun. I enjoy listening to this CD over and over.

Limon y Sal

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Julieta Venegas

Release Date June 06, 2006
I had heard "Limon y Sal", the song, a long time ago and loved it. When I first listened to the CD I was surprised to hear 3 other songs I recognized from the radio. I know very little Spanish, but with the lyrics included, I can sing along. It's fun to listen to with catchy tunes!

Los Extraterrestres: Otra Dimension

CD-Charts > Music > General
by: Wisin y Yandel

Release Date May 27, 2008
This CD is an outstanding musical accomplishment. It's hard to imagine a collection better than Pa'l Mundo, but this is it. The sound is very sophisticated and innovative. I'm enjoying it tremendously. This CD also comes with a DVD which includes an excellent interview with WY (W does most of the talking) but the interview offers some insight into the mentality and creativity of these outstanding artists.
