Shake Away/Ojo de Culebra

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Latin Rock
by: Lila Downs

September 02, 2008
Lila Downs pulls out the stops on this record and covers a wide range of styles - but with superb skill and results! She even looks different on the cover photos from her earlier recordings. This woman is "Shakin'".

Me parece uno de los mejores CDs de Juanes. Mucho ritmo colombianisimo y me encanta la variedad de ritmos y arreglos musicales que integra en este CD.

Clandestino

This CD is like a drug for me - 3 years later I can not stop listening it. The more I listed to it the more I like it. I shared it with a friend who is now hooked on Manu Chao - "His songs make me feel good".

La Radiolina

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Latin Rock
by: Manu Chao

September 04, 2007
Quite a good album, traditional to Manu Chao music, with a slight escape into mainstream.
Some songs seem like reworks or versions of the same song done in different ways. Good for listening while riding in a car.
It is certainly worth listening to, but if you are not a real Manu Chao dedicated fan you might find it slighlty repetitive.
The real value of this album is that some of the widely played songs can bring Manu Chao closer to listeners who were not that familiar with his music and lead them to explore his other songs.

Amar Es Combatir

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Latin Rock
by: Maná

August 22, 2006
I have liked Mana for years, but never really got into them as much as I have recently. I started downloading entire albums recently (rather than piecemeal via p2p) and this one does not disappoint. It contains one of my favorites, "Labios Compartidos", as well as several other awesome songs in true Mana fashion. While this is not my favorite album (that would be Cuando Los Angeles Lloran), it is great nonetheless and a must for any Mana fan. Even if you are just interested in Spanish rock, this is a good album to have. And for less than $10 to download, it's not too big of a risk.

Limon y Sal

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Latin Rock
by: Julieta Venegas

June 06, 2006
I had heard "Limon y Sal", the song, a long time ago and loved it. When I first listened to the CD I was surprised to hear 3 other songs I recognized from the radio. I know very little Spanish, but with the lyrics included, I can sing along. It's fun to listen to with catchy tunes!

I'm a big fan of Cafe Tacvba. Only one song really grabbed me on this CD, where in the past almost all the songs were amazing.

Mi Sangre

September 28, 2004
I have bought this CD along with 'undia normal' after listening Juanes on PBS's Austin City Limits. I love two songs from this album especially: la camisa negra and damelo. There are few other great tracks as well, but overal I enjoyed more the'undia normal' CD. You can buy the tracks you like separately, but I wanted to have the CDs in my collection. This album, as a whole could be better, but I don't regret getting it as these CDs make a great beach or party companion.

Sometimes you think that you are going to get some wierd songs in between the hit tracks, but I really enjoyed this album. Mario really has a good ear for music.
Aveces los artistas tienen canciones raras entre las canciones buenas, pero en este caso, realmente disfrute de todas. Mario tiene excelente oido para la musica

Sonidos Gold

Childrens Toy Shop > Music > Latin Rock
by: Grupo Fantasma

June 17, 2008
This album is one of the best Latino albums I've heard in years, and I listen to and own quite a lot of Latino records, both old and new. This group are to 2008 what Santana was in the 70s: they offer an exciting, up-to-date brew of Latin styles that congeal into the most powerful sound around. The thundering percussion throughout is unrivalled in contemporary rock music - be sure to play it loud, and if your vecinos complain, invite them a la fiesta! The infectious 'Bacalao con Pan' alone is worth the price of the whole CD, but there are lots of other gems, too. Muy rico, muy caliente, sobresaliente!
