SHORT CHANGED -- stripped 7 original tracks, added 4 not really new tracks & included a previously televised documentary
October 9, 2010
By BWJK
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
"Primera Fila Un Ano Despues" was supposed to be a 2010 deluxe edition of the "En Primera Fila" 2009 release. Traditionally, a deluxe edition of a previous album usually includes the original track listing plus bonus tracks and remixes, and sometimes, some new or special cover art to boost the sales of the previous release. It's a marketing strategy that will force hardcore fans to buy old stuff in new fancy packaging as part of their collection and to entice potential new fans with supposedly "newer" and "updated" material in this reissue.
CONS:
Unfortunately, for some weird reason, Sony Latin USA has decided to SHORT CHANGE USA fans by stripping away 7 (and maintaining only 6) of the original 13-track listing. The addition of the "new" tracks "Ay Amor" (simultaneously released in the Wal-Mart CD + DVD Special Edition [with 6 audio tracks on the CD & 4 video tracks on the DVD] and digitally released at Amazon) and "Pienso En Ti" (previously digitally leaked) didn't do much help either. The 2 "new" remixes of "Ensename A Vivir (Dance Remix)" and "Equivocada (Bachata Version)" were lackluster and unimpressive at best. The original organic sound of "Ensename A Vivir" should not have been adulterated and butchered into this amateurish and cringe-worthy "dance remix." Fusing the original organic sound with more contemporary electronica sound just didn't work, period. And both of these sadly unremarkable tracks could have been easily downloaded for $1.29 each here at Amazon, if you have some money to waste.
Moving on to the DVD, the 45-minute "Las Muchas Vidas De Thalia" documentary was actually an edited version (with some cut scenes) of the original documentary of the same name (runtime: approximately 42 minutes) telecast in the USA last November 21, 2009 as a promotion for her then-upcoming December 2009 release, "En Primera Fila." The 3 "new" minutes of video documentary footage was only actually an update of how Primera Fila did well in the charts, especially in Mexico. It is very similar to the 1.5-minute promo clip for the "PF Un Ano Despues" streamed online at YouTube last September 22, 2010.
The possible could-have-been-saving-grace of the DVD (and the reissue in general) is the inclusion of the official music videos of this album, in particular, that of "Ensename A Vivir" (original and remix versions) which is the only video that made use of never-before-seen footage of Thalia in the beach. I must emphasize however, that the video, despite its inclusion of some state-of-the-art graphics, still looked very amateurish, which reminded me very much of the 2006 "Olvidame" music video, conceptualized and directed by (gasp) Thalia herself.
PROS:
The cover art was released in full color (finally!). The poster insert was decent at best. I only considered the cover art as a positive component of this release simply because it is much better than the monotone black-gray-white palette of the 2009 original release.
SUMMARY:
Do NOT buy this release UNLESS you are a big Thalia audiophile (like me) who collects all her physical album/single/promo releases. Frankly, the "additions" to the already-stripped original USA track listing are NOT really worth your $13. If you badly want this CD, I would suggest that you get the Mexican release instead, since it is the REAL deluxe version (with a better front cover, intact original 13 tracks, 4 new tracks, and the DVD documentary). The downside of this Mexican release is, unfortunately, the price (about $18-$20 plus shipping).
Finally, Sony Latin USA, why are you short-changing Thalia's fans in the USA? Just because her PF's performance in the USA didn't match that in her native Mexico, you're giving us this "condensed" and "previously seen" deluxe edition? I hope not.
And because of this, I'm sorry Thalia, but your record company messed up big time with this release. My objective (bias-free) rating: 1 out of 5 stars.

Hola! Buen día! Ya lo tengo y créeme que solo lo compré por tratarse de Thalía, sólo por eso. Amo PF, en verdad es así, pero yo no entiendo porque Sony llama a esto, DELUXE EDITION. De lujo no tiene nada! eso es muy cierto, el contenido que incluyeron como "extra" ya lo conocíamos, de alguna u otra forma. Por ejemplo: Pienso En Ti y Ay Amor, estaban disponible en descarga digital y ya si quieres verlo de la forma "pirata", también las encuentras en la web.
Por otro lado, "Las Muchas Vidas de Thalía", ya sabíamos de que se trataba el contenido de este documental, lo vimos por el canal 2 y volvemos a lo mismo, si buscas en la web lo encuentras dividido en partes y sacado directo de la transmisión de Televisa.
Las rolas extras: esa es la PEOR parte de todo! Por Dios! "Enseñame a Vivir" (Dance Version o Remix Version!), "Equivocada" (Version Bachata!), por Dios, pero ¿en que estaban pensando los ejecutivos y Thalía? También ya estaban disponibles, de alguna forma, ya lo debes de saber.
Y sigo, uno esperaba el concierto completo y completo es eso, sin cortes, entiendo de edición para darle continuidad, pero es el mismo de 2009! ¿Dónde quedaron los comentarios de Thalía entre cada rola?. La versión de lujo que prometieron se quedó muy corta con el trabajo final y eso no es justo! ¿Dónde quedó la rola que todos esperabamos? "Dónde Estarás". En fin tengo mucho que decir de esta reedición, pues solo es eso: una reedición. ¿DELUXE EDITION? Jamás!

No vale la pena.
Su voz pujona,quejosa,sin matices,fastidia al escucharla,es una "cantante" que no vale escuchar ni desde la ultima fila.
