| | Trini Lopez Latin Album CD Trini Lopez Discography of CDs
 (2 Customer Reviews)
Soon after his live performance of "If I Had a Hammer" became a surprise smash in 1964, Trinidad Lopez III (aka Trini Lopez) began branching out -- as all adult pop artists did during the '60s -- with full LPs devoted to everything from folk music and the hits of the day to R&B. None were as comfortable a fit, however, as his Latin Album, which featured 12 standards from the repertoire, several of them very familiar to American audiences ("Perfidia," "Besame Mucho," "La Malagueña"). Lopez's performances are jaunty but passionate, and about as authentically Latin as could be expected from an LP of this type. Don Costa's arrangements make more concessions to the mainstream audience, but they leave Lopez plenty of room to indulge in the occasional vocal acrobatics to be expected on a Latin record. On the highlight, "Angelito," Lopez sings in English and Spanish while a deft, fuzzy guitar line grinds away in the background. ~ John Bush

Growing up among Afro-Americans in Berkeley, CA, Greek-American Johnny Otis (born John Veliotes) always identified strongly with people of color. Before he had attained the age of 20 he was gigging with black jazz bands throughout the Southwest, and eventually organized an ensemble deliberately patterned after Count Basie's orchestra. This highly charged album of historical musical ...

Cowboy Mouth just wasn't made for these times, but they're inextricably part of them. They are very much a product of the late '90s, dabbling in lightly funky beats, loud post-grunge guitars, soulful funk, rap-like alliteration, postmodern jokes, and loose-limbed jams, but their spirit seems to be from another era, when groups toured for months and years on end. In short, they're a bit like a cross of Sister Hazel and Barenaked Ladies, tempered with the soul and character of a '70s journeyman band. That makes them somewhat less than hip, but on their third major-label album, Easy, they're more interesting than some of the trad rock and jam bands they're usually grouped with. That doesn't mean that they're easier to digest for listeners not acclimated to this sound; the occasionally overwrought singing, occasionally pedestrian songwriting, and the occasional joke, plus the too carefully considered production keeps Easy at a bit of a distance for the uninitiated. Still, it's hardly a bad record and the best moments do show that the group members are capable songwriters (the bouncing, Brit-styled "Everybody Loves Jill" is a clever highlight), and the whole thing suggests that they would be a really good live band. But here, they only show part of their potential. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
