ALEXANDRE PIRES won the 2002 Latin Grammy Award for Best Engineered Album.
The solo debut from Alexandre Pires, lead vocalist for Brazil's Só Pra Contrariar, is an impeccably produced collection of power ballads delivered in a sensual croon. Singing in Spanish instead of Portuguese, Pires invests his lyrics with bucketfuls of emotion, resulting in powerful singalong anthems like "Aqui Nada Es Igual," "Usted Se Me Llevo la Vida," and "Necesidad." Though there's nothing here as catchy and infectious as Só Pra Contrariar's "Santo Santo," Pires appears quite ready to take his place in a long line of Latin heartthrobs from Julio Iglesias to Ricky Martin. ~ John Bush

 Alexandre the Great!!!!!
I don't speak spanish and understand it even less, however, I was compelled to purchase the cd after I heard Usted Se Me Llevo la Vida and now, I'm addicted to latin music. Alexandre has great depth and range. He also sings with alot of emotion. Tracks 1,3,9 and 10 are my personal favs. Oddly enough, I sing his music as though I were born to speak the language. Now people know me as the brotha who sings latin music....thanks for changing my life Alexandre!!!!!!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No I'm brazilian and I liked the Alexandre's voice in Spanish!
The ex-SPC Alexandre Pires is being recognized like the best latin vocal of the year. After recording SANTO SANTO together Gloria Estefan, his fame was so high! He sings very well, buy his album 'coz is the best thing you do!

Alexandre Pires album
 $7.69 
AZUL was nominated for the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Latin Pop Album.
Those enamored of the romantic Latin ballad stylings of such artists as Enrique Iglesias will immediately warm up to the warm, fuzzy sound of Cristian. Though the Latin explosion in pop helped Cristian to become a crossover hit, he's no Enrique-come-lately. He's a prolific artist who's been around the block enough to learn the ins and outs of crafting the kind of lush, emotive, wide-screen pop that dominates AZUL. If you're after the kind of churning, Tom Jones-with-a-Spanish-accent ...

"A Dios Le Pido" won the 2002 Latin Grammy Award for Best Rock Song.
UN DIA NORMAL won the 2003 Latin Grammy Awards for Album Of The Year and won for Best Rock Solo Vocal Album. "Es Por Ti" won for Record Of The Year and for Song Of The Year. "Mala Gente" won for Best Rock Song. The album was also nominated for Best Latin Rock/Alternative Album.
Refusing to play the Latin pop crossover game, Colombian singer-songwriter Juanes returns with UN DIA NORMAL, a second solo album sung entirely in Spanish that manages to kick the idea of sophomore jinx square in the jewels. Teaming up with Rock En Espanol production kingpin Gustavo Santaolalla, the former Ekhymosis frontman delivers a pleasing fusion of folkloric and contemporary pop-rock nuances ranging from the jangly nugget "Desde Que Despierto" and rock steady cadence of "La Paga" to the crisply delivered vallenato "Luna." Other highlights include the crisp shuffle "Luna," bossa-nova-kissed ...

Paul Simon has argued that an artist's debut album is often his or her best because when artists have a lot on their minds and finally get a chance to record, the results can be unusually inspired. Simon's theory would explain the dreaded sophomore curse; second albums, in some cases, are disappointing because the artist has already used up many of his or her best ...

Although somewhat jazzy at times and released on a jazz label (Sunnyside), this is very much a world music release. Vocalist/percussionist Minino Garay performs a variety of music influenced by rhythms and folk melodies from South America and India, and touched by such modern trends as rap (which is used sparingly). Violinist Line Kruse makes the biggest impression among the instrumentalists (particularly ...

| | Woggles Rock And Roll Backlash CD (2007)
Alexandre Pires album
$10.49
The Woggles aren't trying to reinvent the garage rock wheel, but after slogging it out in every dive club imaginable since 1987, they realize that bringing new spins to the formula neither dilutes it nor opens them up to the dreaded sellout finger-pointing. Recorded at Rick Miller's (Southern Culture on the Skids) Kudzu Ranch in North Carolina, produced by Jeff Walls (ex-of Guadalcanal Diary), and mastered by the near legendary Rodney Mills, the quartet has a formidable backline for its first album in four years. The guys rise to the occasion with some of their finest material. The Woggles have experienced a surge in popularity through exposure on Little Steven's weekly radio show. Since this album is released on his Wicked Cool label, that is likely to continue. Little has changed in the group's approach, though ...
