5.0 out of 5 stars great authentic Puerto Rican plena....., April 7, 2007

For those of you who think that Puerto Rico's greatest musical claim to fame is a toss-up between salsa and reggaeton, I suggest you check out this CD for a great introduction to one of their ORIGINAL musical claims to fame. Plena is a great, syncopated up-tempo style of music, complete with percussion and charged vocals. Traditionally speaking, plena was a means of communicating important news and social issues to the masses, through its lyrics.

Plena Libre does a wonderful job of capturing the sound and flavor of plena with their tunes (some of them original, others old favorites). Some of my favorite cuts include "Olvidalo," "Canario Blanco" and "Tributo a Rafael Cortijo" (Cortijo was one of Puerto Rico's late, great musicians). This album is sizzling. Buy it today.
