Herb Alpert Presents Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66

CD-Charts > Music > Latin Pop
by: Sergio Mendes

Release Date September 26, 2006
This supposedly remastered CD sounds bright & thin with no body or bass. It's so awful that I had to take it off my stereo within seconds of playing it. I even tried to improve the sound by using a treatment available on the market to improve the sound, but that didn't even work since this CD sounds so bad. Releasing this terrible sounding CD is a disgrace. The A&M label should be ashamed of themselves!

Bachata Roja: Acoustic Bachata From the Cabaret Era

CD-Charts > Music > Latin Pop
by: Various Artists

Release Date November 06, 2007
"Bachata" is a party music that comes from the Dominican Republic, and since the 1980s it has become a globally popular dance style... This disc explores bachata's roots in the early 1960s to the early '80s, when it was still a primarily acoustic form, mixing the heart-piercing sentimentality of the bolero with dazzling, multi-layered guitar work similar to the Cuban guajira and Puerto Rican jibaro music... This is amazingly rich, satisfying music -- one of the finest historical Latin albums of the decade, packed with powerful performances from rare, hard-to-find records. Highly recommended!

Un Dia Normal

Release Date May 21, 2002
I bought this CD after listening to Austin City Limits concert featuring Juanes. That was the first time I've heard him sing, and I loved the music immediately. I especially like the following tracks: La Paga, Mala Gente, Fotografia, and La Noche. Overall, the entire album is good.

Great rock music, that's gonna make you wanna dance. Especially great for summer parties.

Si Tu Te Vas

Release Date July 08, 2008
NADA MAS PORQUE HE OIDO SU MUSICA POR AÑOS LAS CANCIONES VIEJITAS DE AÑOS 80'S Y 90'S , YO PENSARIA QUE ES EL GRUPO DE LOS MAS MALOS. YO EN MI PUNTO DE VISTA LES LLAMARIA LOS CHENTITOS FERNANDEZ POR QUE SE CUELGAN DE LAS CANCIONES DE VICENTE FERNANDEZ PARA VENDER DISCOS Y TAL PARECE QUE YA NO TIENEN TALENTO TANTO EN MUSICA COMO EN MELODIAS ES UNA LASTIMA QUE UN GRUPO QUE TENIA ''TALENTO'' HAGA ESTO

Release Date June 17, 2008
This is the CD for the Summer of '08. These girls sound great. Too bad it's been a year since their hit "Rockstar" from the Bratz soundtrack. I was glad to see that it was included in this cd. "Nadie" is a great remake of Alicia Keys "No One". All the songs are awesome. Congrats Prima J! Looks like you are gonna have an amazing career. I can't wait till you go on tour. You should have Kanye and Fergie open for you. Well, off to You Tube to catch your Wango Tango performance.

...Hey! Put the taco down and DANCE!!!

The New Bossa Nova

CD-Charts > Music > Latin Pop
by: Luciana Souza

Release Date August 21, 2007
Bossa nova has been in Luciana Souza's blood since she was a child growing up in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in the early '60s as the daughter of two of its innovators, Walter Santos and Tereza Sousa.
So, after six critically acclaimed albums where her expansive, homegrown Brazilian musical vocabulary converged with American jazz, the three-time Grammy Award-nominated Los Angeles-based vocalist returns to the wellspring and explores bossa nova from a different slant on "The New Bossa Nova," produced by her husband, jazz musician/producer Larry Klein"(D.Quellette-Reuters).
"The New Bossa Nova" marks an exciting new chapter for the Brazilian-born vocalist and three-time Grammy nominee, who's already widely acknowledged as one of jazz's most respected and ... Read More:
