5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CD
This CD is simply incredible. I love all of Alejandro Sanz' albums, but if I had to choose just one of them to listen to, I think it would be this one. This live CD contains acoustic versions of some great songs from a couple of his CDs.

He is one of the few Latin pop artists who writes his own songs, and, as always, this disc's lyrics are poetic, intelligent,...

2.0 out of 5 stars are these people crazy? 5 stars? No way.
this is at best an average cd. reminds me a bit of james taylor style but not the originality of taylor. if you insist to get this cd, make sure you buy it at deep discount. otherwise, don't waste your time/money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent CD, December 11, 1999

This review is from: Basico (Audio CD)
This CD is simply incredible. I love all of Alejandro Sanz' albums, but if I had to choose just one of them to listen to, I think it would be this one. This live CD contains acoustic versions of some great songs from a couple of his CDs.

He is one of the few Latin pop artists who writes his own songs, and, as always, this disc's lyrics are poetic, intelligent, expressive, and well-written. When I got my first Ale. Sanz CD, I was kind of ambivalent about it, but the more I listened to it, the more I fell in love with it. I've since recorded 3 of his CDs on a single tape and from the day I put it in my tape-player, I haven't taken it out.

Even if you don't speak Spanish, you can still enjoy the beautiful melodies and moods that this disc creates. This CD is generally pretty mellow, but the songs don't all sound the same. If you're thinking of getting your first Alejandro Sanz CD, I think either this one or "Mas" would be a good start.

Es un disco muy bueno que fue escrito con mucha emocion. Sus letras bonitas expresan completamente sus sentimientos en una poesia bella. Ademas la musica es buenisima como siempre, pero en esta ocasion quizas un poco mas tranquila. Los sonidos de los varios instrumentos mezclan para crear un sentido muy suave y hermoso. Puede que sus letras sean un poco dificil de entender, pero si se pueden entender si tienes el actitud correcto-- es como el dijo en su ultimo disco, Mas: "Yo quiero regalarte una poesia, tu piensas que estoy dando las noticias."

Siento mucho no poder expresarme mejor en el espanol. A veces me desanimo, pero sigo estudiando. Creo que es por medio de musica asi que se puede oir el espanol como se debe hablar y darse cuenta de la lengua bella que es.

5.0 out of 5 stars me encanta este disco es un arte!, May 29, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Basico (Audio CD)
no en realidad este disco es lo MAXIMO desde que los escuche me encanto. es cierto lo que dicen los demas de que al principio como que te confunde pero logras a entenderlo facilmente con prestando toda tu attencion que a veces te ries de que como te encanta la manera de que compone su musica. alejandro sanz canta practicamente indirectament pero comprendidas. en este disco todo lo que el canta me ha sucedido excepto la cancion "se le apago la luz" pero es como si el me conociera y canto mi vida. este disco es un arte de el. todas sus disco son un arte de alejandro sanz.!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, estupendo!!!, November 15, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Basico (Audio CD)
Every song on this CD is great. I love his live cds. He sings with such passion. Definitely one of my favorites from Alejandro. I don't know what that guy is talking about Taylor. If he likes him so much then stick to Taylor, but ALejandro is great without comparison.

5.0 out of 5 stars EN VIVO EL MEJOR!, February 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Basico (Audio CD)
ALEJANDRO SANZ ES SIMPLEMENTE UN GENIO DE LA MUSICA. ADEMAS DE MUSICO ES POETA. AL PRINCIPIO SUS LETRAS TE CONFUNDEN PERO UNA VEZ QUE TE DAS CUENTA DE QUE EL NO BUSCA LO COMPLICADO SINO LO SINCERO SUS PALABRAS SON LA MEJOR COMBINACION QUE QUE AHIGA. ESTE CD ES SIMPLEMENTE "BASICO" PARA SABER Y CONOCER DE SUS INICIOS. LA GUITARRA Y SU VOZ SE FUCIONAN EN UN SOLO SER PARA DAR VIDA A HISTORIAS QUE PUEDEN PASAR A PERSONAS REALES EN EL MUNDO. ES BASICO TENER ESTE CD SI SE QUIERE APRECIAR A ALEJANDRO SANZ A SU MAXIMO.

Un gran album, que demustra la madurez que ya venia tomando este gran cantante, para mi es un punto de despegue de su carrera. El sonido genial, y la seleccion de canciones comienzan con una antologica Mi primera cancion y termina con toda la energia de Viviendo de prisa.Encontraras todo lo que buscas en este Cd.

5.0 out of 5 stars De lo basico a lo increible ! por Jorge Ignacio Nunez, November 4, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Basico (Audio CD)
Este gran album de Alejandro Sanz es una recopilación de unas cuantas de sus grandes canciones en vivo y en version acustica,donde ademas de apreciarlas en esta modalidad nos daremos cuenta una vez mas del increible desenvolvimiento de este gran artista a la hora de poner a sonar esa guitarra.
