 $6.59   
OLGA VIVA, VIVA OLGA was nominated for the 2000 Latin Grammy Award for Best Merengue Performance.
OLGA VIVA, VIVA OLGA won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Merengue Album.
As WEA Latina often did during Olga Tañón's off years, the label issued a stopgap release in 1999 -- just in time for the holiday season, of course. That year's stopgap, Olga Viva, Viva Olga, is a colorful live recording from a show Tañón performed at House of Blues, Orlando, FL. The recording was released on CD as well as video. It's a colorful recording because of Tañón's zeal: she injects a lot of energy into her performance and goes out of her way to interact with the rapturous audience. Her zeal, along with the set list of fan favorites, compensates somewhat for the poor mixing of the recording. The music never quite stands out like it should, as none of the instruments sound in relief from one another, as if the show were recorded through a single channel and subsequently unmixed. Needless to say, these performances may be full of zeal, but ...

Coleccion De Oro
$7.79
Luis Miguel can always be counted on to deliver romance upon demand, with his trademark persuasive vocal style and luxurious musical arrangements. But with 2004's MEXICO EN LA PIEL, he breaks with tradition (at least on the title track), to acknowledge his fealty to his home country of Mexico. However, the album is by no means a set of patriotic ballads--Miguel remains as devoted to romance as ever on "De Que Manera Te Olvido," with the aid of stirring, passionate strings, and "Echame a Mi La Culpa," with its mariachi-flavored horns. His specialty is the pleading, broken-hearted lover, a role he plays with infectious enthusiasm on "Que Seas Feliz," but on "Un Mundo Raro," he acknowledges that love of one's country can exert a pull as strong as the love of another person. Miguel's lush, string- and horn-laden arrangements ...

Coleccion De Oro
$7.75
35 ANIVERSARIO LO MEJOR DE LARA won the 2003 Latin Grammy Award for Best Ranchero Album.
Agustin Lara was one of Mexico's great songwriters, and certainly one of the most widely recorded, in addition to composing songs for many Mexican films of the 1930s and '40s. While many have almost forgotten him in the last three decades, Vicente Fernández obviously hasn't. To celebrate his 35th year as a recording artist, he's put together a disc of the best of Lara's work -- at least in his eyes. Always a romantic, Fernández has gone for the big songs, with new, often lush arrangements that bring out the melodies but never swamp them. Of course, there's no danger of his big voice being crowded out. On songs like "Veracruz" and "Imposible" he's in complete control throughout, while he can also take a gentle piece like "Maria Bonita" and almost make it whisper, while the emotion ...

$9.85 | | Gourds Cow Fish Fowl Or Pig CD (2002) Limited Edition
Coleccion De Oro
$15.05
The photo of the Gourds on the back of the CD booklet makes an odd impression: just a few good old boys, sloppily dressed with beers in hand, sort of a shorthaired version of Lynyrd Skynyrd. But this anti-intellectual pose is just a pose. The title itself, Cow Fish Fowl or Pig seems a bit fantastic, as though someone in the band had spent time in a Masters of English Literature program. "My Name Is Jorge" even includes surrealistic references to William S. Burroughs, Henry Ford, and Muhammad Ali. While this may sound a bit serious, the bandmembers balance their brainy wit with good-time Americana filled with fiddles, electric guitars, accordions, and drums. One of the Gourds' most appealing traits, in fact, is the way they change arrangements from piece to piece, turning "Bottle and a Dime" into Cajun-drenched rock and "The Prayer That Fell Upon the Mirror" into an acoustic feast. "Blankets" rolls along gently as the lyric tells the tale of a love affair that didn't quite work out. The album is split into two parts, "the cow brings home the fish" and "the fowl tells the pig of each transgression," and is divided by a spiritual rap delivered by the "Short Guy from 'Chi-Town.'" This guest rap has the same "this is real" quality as a field recording, as the Short Guy tells how Christ delivered him from cocaine and other evils. The only downside to this innovative band is a vocal drone that seeps into most of its songs, casting a depressive air over the material (think new wave Americana). The combination of intelligent lyrics and a rich musical stew, however, offers listeners more substance than the average roots band. Fans will find Cow Fish Fowl or Pig as appealing as anything the Gourds have recorded. ...
