5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, September 9, 2001

"bettsdaniel" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Antecedente (Audio CD)

If there ever was a songwritter that touches the latin american culture it is Ruben Blades. This album is masterful in all respects. Nonetheless the album has its highlights, namely a simpple song with a guaguanco beat called Patria, and Contrabando. This are excellent examples of the marriage between lyrics, rythm, and melody to tell a transcending story. I give thanks to Panama for having inspired, and raised such a musician.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ruben Rules, August 4, 2007

K. Bunnell (Vermont, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Antecedente (Audio CD)

What can I say? Ruben Blades is the best, and this is an awesome CD. But, just to be honest, I'd say that about any of the albums/CDs I have(eight so far). I just love the fact that Blades is an artist who always blends the deepest thoughts and emotions with exquisite music and expansive energy.

I especially appreciate the English translations of songs in the liner notes of this CD, as my Spanish is actually quite limited.
