3.0 out of 5 stars Not their greatest album, but not bad., June 15, 2009

I almost feel as if they winged it on this one. Though this CD is still good, it's just not their best work to date. I will admit that topping their previous work is challenging, but creativity was lacking here. I feel that they "recycled" a lot from their previous recordings.

But check it out and let me know if you agree or disagree with me. I still love LAI, and will see them in concert come August here in Southern California, but I only wish they would've given it their all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Los Amigos Invisibles Are Back With A Funky Time Review!!!, June 23, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Commercial (Audio CD)
Los Amigos Invisibles are funk!!! If you want into the secrets of the Venezuelan Party time gozadera, look no further. Their style encapsulates, fathoms and transcends R&B and funk. This is a band so tightly honed they make every jawbreaking funk break sounds like an effortless display of perfection!!! Jangly and percussive guitar, fever-hot organ chops, tight basslines- ever-fluid but omni-deep, and lest we forget the drums. Tighter than a fist. There is so much butter and cream on this it just makes me weak in the knees. Do yourself a favor and learn what I've know Since 1995! Los Amigos Invisibles are rhythm incarnate! Just over 50 minutes of the kind of funk usually reserved for immortals and denizens of the lower planes of funky good times. Brother please. If you buy this you need to go get "Not So Commercial" and now you've got a party.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't Speak Spanish, Don't Care--Some Unbelievably Catchy Tracks and Some Just Average!, October 5, 2010
This review is from: Commercial (MP3 Download)
The only LAI song I heard of prior to Commercial or Comercial was "Gorditas de Mario" thanks to the wonderful KCRW Presents: Sounds Eclectico album. I bought the track then focused my attention on another band from the album, the Mexico-based Plastilina Mosh. Fortunately, my internet radio recently decided to randomly play "Sueno Erotico" from Commercial and boy did I realize what I missed of this group. I don't think every song on Commercial is a winner--at least considering I don't understand much of the lyrics--but some of the tracks could be HUGE singles. So catchy! "Vivire Para Ti" has got to be one of the most enjoyable, poppy songs I've heard in ages...and Natalia Lafourcade's voice on the song was perfect! I'm not normally someone who likes a bubbly romantic pop song (assuming that's what it is) but the song is fantastic. I've probably listened to the song 20 times in the first month since I bought it. Interestingly, the acoustic version on YouTube is different and yet just as good as the album version.

Other good tracks besides Sueno Erotico and Vivire Para Ti are Loco Por Tu Amor and In Love With U.

The challenge for LAI is that despite their catchy music, their tracks can be all over the place on an album, and that makes it tough to give a full recommendation. They can use their funky sound well on one track and then the next song is so different and rock oriented that it's tough to listen to the album in full. For example, does the short hard rock "Merengue Killa" work well with the traditionally-sounding song "Oyeme Nina"? Yo creo que no.

That being said, lots of winners on the album and good enough to buy due to many solid tracks. I just hope LAI gets a more stable album next time. And if they or Natalia are listening, let's get Vivire Para Ti into a music video on MTV in the US. It's too good of a song not to really promote on the radio, TV, etc. Natalia's voice is just magical--hopefully her move to Ottawa won't dull her voice at all. Then again, if she can learn to sing in English like in Spanish...she can be as successful as Feist. And that's a compliment.
