Manu Chao is widely acknowledged as a pioneer of Latin alternative music, and was the leader of Mano Negra. This is his first studio release in the US since 2001's "Esperanza". He recently completed his most extensive North American tour to date, following a highly acclaimed co-headlining performance at this year's Coachella festival as well as the Bonnaroo and Sasquatch festivals.
Manu Chao Rocks a la J.J. Cale - Los Enanitos Verdes con singular alegria . Buenas y concisas canciones , comerciales y devertidas , a la tradición de una latino america que necesita más músicos con corazón y buenas intenciones , alegrÃa y esperanza , pensando en otra cosa que no sea la fama y el dinero y las chicas fáciles ... Viva Manu Rocker Chao ...
Customer Rating: Summary: disappointing Comment: It's not a fun listening, the songs are not authentic as on his two earlier albums, but rather annoying. Customer Rating: Summary: the same thing, faster... good!! Comment: Speed...guitars to the front ... ... as same as ever but more fast, as the street that we walkin' ..... burnin' as the anguish of Latin America .... the same thing all over again, this would certainly be good ! Customer Rating: Summary: Interesting and different! Comment: I love Manu Chao - though I must say that after living in Central America for a while on the traveler circuit I got a bit tired of hearing Clandestino, which seemed to be on perpetual play EVERYWHERE (meanwhile, he was touring the US for the first time - bummed I missed that!) Manu Chao has managed to unite a people with his music and lyrics - it's truly unreal the effect he's had in Mexico and Central America. Still, on a purely musical note I hate to see him lumped into "world" or "protest" or "political" music because he's so much more than that, an innovative musician I hope won't make us wait so long next time - I've edited all my mp3s of his to file him under the genre "Unclassifiable" - because he is. Customer Rating: Summary: great tunes, great message Comment: I really enjoyed the mix of styles and languages on this album. It mixes latin music with folk and pop to make very, very catchy tunes that are at times very exciting, at other times very relaxing, and always great listening. I also like the left-leaning politics of the lyrics. Very, very cool stuff.
