Alfonso X (El Sabio): Cantigas de Santa Maria

Advantages: Full of great songs which are backed by a great production team
Disadvantages: If u can only get the re-released version and not the original then the album cover is not the greatest

...This has to be the best album Ricky Martin has ever made. It is full of great songs and doesnt have that allied carpet appeal that some of his other albums do!! The title track, Vuelve which losely translated means come back, is a sad love song about someone pining over their lost love, there are some other beautiful ballads like 'Corazonado' (Hopeful) and 'Hagamos el Amor' (Lets make love) on the album, not to mention 'La Copa de La Vida/The Cup of Life in both its spanish and spanglish format and also Maria. There is a strong latin vibe on this album and it most dfinatley a feel good record. And dont worry if you dont understand any spanish as this album is good either way.... Read review

Advantages: Passionate music that will have you dancing all night! They've been in films to!

El Sol De La noche (Meaning the Midnight sun, a very traditonal love song with a salsa twist) 3. Guajira Sin Sol (Starts of slow and acoustic then goes immediately into jazz) 4. Elaugua De La Vida (Meaning: Water Of Life. The most scottish song, one of my favorites, it plays an accordion with a jazz band!) 5. Whisky Con Ron (The most relaxing one and calmest. It has alot of folk and jazz, if you know spanish, it tells of the story of women and whisky in the sun!) 6. Ave Maria De Escolia Medley (Meaning:Hail Mary of Scotland Medley. This has every genre mentioned playing from acousitc, to folk to jazz to scottish!) 7. Maestro (Meaning:Maestro. The jazziest song on the album... Read review

Disadvantages: Canciones que ya tengo en otros discos

...¡¡¡Hola amigos y amigas de ciao!!! Hoy os voy a hablar sobre el último disco que ha sacado al mercado este grupo sueco que es, sin duda, el mejor grupo de Suecia después del éxito multitudinario que tuvo ABBA. Este grupo de origen sueco nació en 1986 con su primer disco que fue "Pearls of Passion". No fue un éxito de ventas en su propio país y en países cercanos (en España no salió a la venta este disco y las canciones que incluía las grabó y utilizó Per Gessle en un disco que lanzó en solitario. Las canciones las grabó para este primer disco de Roxette con la cantante Marie Fredriksson. Después de este disco vinó otro disco más y llegó el tercero que se vendió en toda Europa como churros, si me permitís la licencia de decirlo así; ese disco fue Look Sharp! en el año 1989. Este maravilloso álbum marcó en inicio de la carrera al... Read review
