5.0 out of 5 stars Ms. Mendez Hits The Mark, April 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Senora Tentacion (Audio CD)

For years Lucia Mendez seemed to miss the mark with her pop-rock oriented albums and her popularity was beginning to fade along with her presence on the televised novellas (especially amongst the older Hispanic generation)! Finally, she hit the bull's eye with Senora Tentacion in 1994. I was in my mid-20's when I bought this album and can only describe it as BEAUTIFUL ! The way Lucia looks on the cover as a '40's or '50's Hollywood seductress is the way her vocal talent and music shine on this album ! Her interpretation of composer Agustin Lara's music is in fine form here. It's about time she put out an album with a style of music that would give her vocal ability a great workout. You can feel the emotion, the passion and heart from Lucia on this one. With this collection of romantic boleros she has recaptured the faith of my older relatives as well as the younger crowd. Senora Tentacion gets more than 5 stars !!!

This review is from: Senora Tentacion (Audio CD)

This CD can be viewed as the "soundtrack" to the superb Telemundo soap opera "Senora Tentacion" in which Lucia Mendez plays the role of a cabaret/lounge songstress in an imaginary Latin American country (in the 1950s) torn apart by political turmoil and civil unrest. On this gorgeous album, Mendez gives "modern" (but true-to-the-original) interpretations of 12 of the legendary Agustin Lara's most famous compositions. If you like the music of yesteryear's great boleristas (Pedro Vargas, Tona La Negra, Tito Rodriguez, Chucho Avellanet, etc.) I strongly recommend your buying this CD if you can find it as it won't disappoint.
