5.0 out of 5 stars Clandestino, February 11, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Clandestino (Audio CD)

Manu Chao's Clandestino was the biggest musical discovery for me in 1999. This CD is a musical journey full of surprises that will make you play it over and over again. It seems to me Clandestino came straight from Manu Chao's heart, mind and soul and that truly shows. The music paints very vivid pitcures and can not leave listener passive and uninterested. Intriguing and powerful, it is full of life and pleasent sounds, it is full of that special "universal language" that we so often forget, but crave in today's commercialized world. It will bring you up when you are down; it will cool you off when you need it; it will enrich you in every way music can do.

CLANDESTINO is one of the best albuns i've ever heard! totally pure and different from the usual stuff every artist plays - manu's got his own unique style, and yes, repeating rythms and lyrics during the whole cd. the fact is that we get into his mood, we feel we're elsewhere when we listen to this beauty. I highly recomend it to those who do not have limited heads! p.s.: and please, he does NOT sing in italian, but in brazilian PORTUGUESE, as one of the reviewers said... he's also FRENCH, and not mexican, as the same person wrote!

Re. the music: I have been listening to this cd regularly for over two years, and I still find new layers, new nuances. Pure unadulterated magic. Re. Manu Chao: father Galician; mother Basque(?); brought up in Paris with Algerians, Senegalese; lover of Latin America... Where is he from?? He would probably say that if you have to ask you'll never know.
