Free Music Notes for Romance & PassionFree Music Review: Romance & Passion Hit: 5 Stars
This is a great CD from Benise's ealier work...a little more suttle but still mixes it up. Song Forbiden has a very sexy beat. Another one I would suggest to add to your Benise collection if you don't already have this CD.

Free Music Review: Excellent music while driving Hit: 4 Stars
I heard Benise playing at the Ontario Mills Mall in 2001...I was so moved by the music I wanting to start swaying and dancing right in the mall!! Of course reality hit so instead of looking like a bumbling fool, I marched right over to were their CD's were being sold and bought this particular CD......They have a great website at benise.com which is pretty good and you can buy their music Music Review: Unfortunate to say the least... Hit: 1 Stars
Here are my points:
1 - First of all, this guy is a marginal guitarist at best. He is incredibly sloppy and even his "fast" runs are often played on one string with no articulation and tons of mistakes. The lack of virtuosity is obvious in a form of music in which it is required. Listen to Jesse Cook, Paco de Lucia, Johannes Linstead, Incendio, Tomatito, Vicente Amigo, and even Lara and Reyes. You may not like their music, but the level of guitar playing is obvious.
2- The songcraft is poor. Listen to "Bola" or "Jardin" by Strunz and Farah and hear the perfect marriage of great guitarmanship and songwriting.
3 - There is no depth to the music, no history. He sounds like a rocker that said "I can't make it in pop so maybe I can play some Spanish guitar and make some money".
