4.0 out of 5 stars
Impressive,
By "coalblacksky@hotmail.com" (Tacoma, WA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Stereo (Audio CD)
Austin TX band Vallejo are first and foremost a live rock band. This comes through on Stereo very well. "Take A Ride" and "Downtown" have both elements of funk and blues in them. Frontman A.J. Vallejo is a fine lead guitarist and singer, providing a sultry feel to the group's latin rhythms. Basically, they are a pop band, but still capable of hard moments, as on "Devils"(which even quotes Sabbath, go figure.) Mellow, heartfelt songs like "Let's Talk About It" and "You Are" avoid being cliche and actaully sound sincere. This is a strong album that shows a band capable of doing many different kinds of music and doing them well.

it has the austin groove AND the world-wide commerciality. amazing beats that keep you moving matched up with harmonies that stop you in your tracks. the boys have evolved nicely. this offering is a beautiful resting place on the way to the summit for vallejo. a must hear! really a good solid release.

If you like rock, buy this album,

In fact, if you like rock, buy any Vallejo album. I would rate this slightly behind their best efforts: the self-titled Vallejo, and Beautiful Life. However, the songs are solid. From the opening hook of "Take a Ride", to the Latin cross-over "Rock Americano", to the high-energy cover of "Mexican Radio". I just hope they get national air play they deserve this time. I've been listening to Vallejo since the Nomad tour ('97). As good as their albums are, you must see them live. But that's hard to do if you're not in the Austin, TX area. If you can't make the pilgrimage to see one of the best local bands ever, at least buy the album and you'll see what you're missing.
