5 out of 5 stars Recordando a Felipe Pirela.......2005-07-07

For the true Lover of tropical Romantic and Sentimental music, this is a true delite for one to cherish.
For no longer can there be such music to be found by such original composers.
We can only be fortunate to be able to find such quality of music in this modern age.

4 out of 5 stars A salsa legend pays tribute to a bolero legend........2003-07-04

Legendary salsa sonero Hector Lavoe paid a moving tribute to the legendary bolerista Felipe Pirela on this 1977 release. Hector did quite a good job interpreting these songs and the whole album feels unified. I failed to give it a 5-star rating because Hector was'nt a "Natural-born" bolero singer(but it's still among his best mid-'70s works).

    4 out of 5 stars Fly away.......2006-05-16

    Sarah Brightman has been everything from lunar popster to Broadway goddess. But her career took some weird turns before she settled on her current classical-pop sound. She seems to be sticking to that, with some forays into epic dance.

    But several years ago, she was still fumbling for a style. And of her dabblings in different pop styles, one of the most successful resilts was "Fly." This bizarre album both hints at her present mastery and shows off her vocals, although a few of the songs -- Tom Jones, anybody? -- veer into misstep turf.

    The hint of more operatic material is in the opening number, "Time to Say Goodbye (Con Te Partir?)," a wonderful duet with singer Andrea Bocelli. It makes the next track, "Fly," a little more disarming, a surreal dreamlike song that starts off with a fly's buzzing.

    After that, Sarah Brightman launches into a series of surreally different songs -- haunting, whispery Sigur-Ros-like songs, soaring pop songs, Indian influenced balladrey, clashy technorock, and a rather jerky duet, "Something in the Air," with Tom Jones.

    Versatility is something to always admire in music, even when the artist/band can't settle down on one style long enough. In these songs, Brightman isn't always successful, but she hit the mark a lot more often than she misses. Not one sounds like another, and most of them are pleasant in their own styles.

    Musically, she touches on opera, pop, techno, alternative music and influence from countries like India and Iceland for this album. The result is that each song is entirely unique. The writing for the music is quite good; the general feeling is very haunting, dreamlike -- whether that dream is a nightmare or a fantasy.

    Even the guys she sings with are very different. Chris Thompson's slightly hammy singing and Andrea's strong operatic vocals suit Sarah's styles quite well. Tom Jones doesn't fare so well -- beside Sarah's delicate, soaring voice, he sounds rough and abrasive. At least Sarah shows off both her fluting little-girl voice and her soaring operatic voice.

    While Sarah has done better albums, she has never done (and probably never will) a more versatile album with a wider range of music. "Fly" almost soars, except for a few duds.
