Free Music Notes for El Cantante: The Originals
Free Music Review: For the "Old School" salsa lovers
Hit: 5 Stars
There's nothing like the classic salsa era and Lavoe was one of its premier singers. While he brought to life many more fabulous songs than are found in this CD, it's a great compilation, especially for those not familiar with his voice and sound. As a New Yorker, I grew up on the music of front man Lavoe (together with the fantastic Willie Colon) and had the pleasure and honor of seeing them perform in person. Nothing will compare, but this is the next best thing. Get it and dance, dance, dance!Free Music Review: The Best

I workout to El Cantante - The Original. It's like nonstop Great music to exercise to. Hector Laveo is still the best. I saw Marc Anthony's movie, El Cantante but, I brought Hectors Original CD. It's my favorite CD. I blast the CD in my Escalade, and everybody looking at me and singing along with me. I'm a black guy from the Bronx, living in Manhattan. I don't know a lot of Spanish, but I love hectors music. He is still the Greatest.Free Music Review: Nothing like Lavoe's originals

I also purchased the soundtrack for the movie "El Cantante" and was sorely disappointed. The new musical arrangements by Sergio George for this movie have gutted the original classic salsa sound. There is barely a remnant of the cencerro (cowbell) and the clave (the two sticks), two percussion instruments essential to any salsa brava, as all of Hector's songs were.Free Music Review: A must have for all Salsa fans

For those of you getting to know Hector Lavoe, this is a great starter album. The move "El Cantante" has renewed an interest in the original pioneers of salsa like Lavoe, and this album compliments the movie very well. Sure, you can get Marc Anthony's rendition of the genius and his songs, but you should always start out with the original.Free Music Review: It is worth every penny.

I absolutely love this CD. I am a black female and I don't understand everything that he is saying, but Levoe is so talented that his passion and diction got me mesmerized. I can actually feel the words. PLEASE EVERYONE GET THIS RECORD...IT IS WELL WORTH IT.
