(51 Customer Reviews)
Though he's a Berklee College of Music graduate whose first recordings owed a considerable debt to Manhattan Transfer, Juan Luis Guerra made his name with a series of merengue-based albums in the 1980s. Guerra's 2004 recording, PARA TI, his first since 1998's NI ES LO MISMO NI ES IGUAL, returns to this winning sound, but with a twist. This collection of ballads, merengue, and pop-based tracks is firmly based on religious themes, from the opening militant merengue of "Soldado" to the simple beauty of the acoustic "Cancion de Sanidad."
Accompanied by simple, mostly acoustic instrumentation, Guerra turns his lyrical acumen (which on previous albums has found him upholding the rights of the poor and disenfranchised) to 11 straightforward and often--as in the case of the pulsating "Los Dinteles"--extremely danceable hymns of praise to God. A Beatles influence may subtly inflect the "Across the Universe"-type riff of "Tan Solo He Venido," but PARA TI remains focused on godly inspiration, and this is powerfully displayed throughout the devotional set.

He Is Truely Blessed All the songs in this CD are a true witness to Juan Luis' "born again" experience. I am sure that some of his fans can't appreciate his new found feelings of total unselfish love for his saviour. "Dios te ha dado un gran don en forma de musica."

| | Golden Age Of American Rock 'N' Roll: Special Doo Wop Edition CD (2004) (Import) United Kingdom
Para Ti (2004) MP3 Album
$17.19 This special edition of Ace's extensive The Golden Age of American Rock'n'Roll series of 1950s and early-'60s oldies' anthologies only makes perfect sense as a purchase if you're collecting every volume. For its 30 tracks are entirely devoted to filling in gaps not covered by the other dozen volumes -- specifically, doo wop chart singles from 1953-63 that, for one reason or another, weren't selected for inclusion in any of the previous installments. Because it's a mix of very big, familiar hits with lower-charting obscurities, it's not wholly satisfactory as either a collection for listeners trying to selectively assemble the best and biggest doo wop singles, or for specialized doo wop collectors, who will inevitably already have a good share of this in their library already. All that noted, The Golden Age of American Rock'n'Roll series is the best series of anthologies of early rock & roll oldies, and if you've been collecting those all along, this is a great, useful addition to that project. Additionally, on its own terms this has a bunch of classic big doo wop hits and some very good lesser-known hits in the style, though some of the songs that only made the lower reaches of Billboard's Top 100 are rather forgettable. The great ones include the Marcels' "Blue Moon," the Platters' "The Great Pretender," the Chimes' "Once in a While," the Diamonds' "Little Darlin'," the Orioles' "Crying in the Chapel," the Cleftones' "Heart and Soul," the Moonglows' "Sincerely," Lee Andrews & the Hearts' "Try the Impossible," and Frankie Lymon & the Teenagers' "Why Do Fools Fall in Love." The nearly-as-goodies include the Regents' "Runaround," the Slades' original version of "You Cheated" (covered for a bigger hit by the Shields), the Ly-Dells' "Book of Love" knock-off "Wizard of Love," ...
