Free Music Notes for Revoluci?n de amor
Free Music Review: Mana Fan Forever
Hit: 5 Stars
I bought this as a treat for myself! And I must say...I absolutely loved it! Off and on I had heard their songs play on the radio, and one day i finally decided to buy an album of theirs. Mana's sound is very unique. I would consider it reggae rock with a wist of pop. On the album one can hear excellent guitar & drum solos. If I had to compare them to anyone else I would say: The Police, U2, and Journey. Yes, MANA is that good! Fher has awesome vocals, Sergio is great on guitar, and Alex 'El Animal' is probably one of the best drummer I have ever heard.Free Music Review: Man? is great!
Hit: 4 Stars
This was the first Man? CD I have ever purchased. I really like it. They blend traditional latin music and great rock guitar work. I will buy more of their recordings.Free Music Review: Same tunes and lyrics as before

Free Music Review: M?s de lo mismo
Hit: 2 Stars
La banda latina m?s vendedora de discos regresa con un disco prescindible totalmente. Decepciona incluso, pues se esperaba algo diferente al muy bueno "Sue?os l?quidos", pero suena como a una mala continuaci?n de este, e incluso, queda por debajo. Mon?tono, lleno de clich?s propios del grupo, con pseudo himnos revolucionarios como "Justicia, tierra y libertad" o el t?pico y repetitivo hit al m?s puro estilo Man?, como lo es "?ngel de amor". Lo ?nico rescatable del disco son las bellas "Mariposa traicionera" y "Eres mi religi?n", convirti?ndose esta incluso en uno de los cl?sicos de toda la discograf?a del grupo, pues es la ?nica canci?n en donde la letra tiene rasgos de una muy buena l?rica, conjugado con una gran m?sica. Fher suena cansado y Alex, Sergio y Juan, aunque muy talentosos, no explotan su capacidad si continuan haciendo reiteraciones in?tiles. Man? debe regenerarse o estar? condenada a pasar desapercibido en el panorama de las bandas propositivas. Aunque quiz?, el pop que hacen actualmente les resulte mucho m?s redituable, como de hecho sucede, dejando de lado la m?sica desde hace mucho tiempo, prefiriendo entonces la danza de los millones. Man? est? para mucho m?s que eso.
Free Music Review: An advance beyond their past
Hit: 5 Stars
I realize that I'm operating at a disadvantage in reviewing this CD. I don't speak Spanish (although I took it in high school and college) and I haven't followed Man? throughout their career. I'm just an late-arriving Americano who appreciates good music whatever its country of origin.
Nevertheless, I was blown away by this CD's sound: its harmony, arrangement, and emotion. In fact, I was blown away enough to order the 3-CD set of their earlier CDs on Warner, based on Amazon reviewers' raves about their earlier work. I can appreciate where those reviewers were coming from, but I still like "Revolucion de Amor" the best.
For my money, the earlier Man? was a worthy band in the Police vein, but a bit minimalist. This CD, where they arguably went corporate (or whatever), fleshes out their potential and really delivers.
Hey, even with English-language bands, I usually place the lyrics in the background and concentrate on the overall sound. On that count, this CD delivers as much as, say, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers or the Sisters of Mercy or Procol Harum or Phil Spector's girl groups. Solid harmonies, good musicianship, great balance.
That may just be succumbing to the allures of pop production, but good pop is all too rare, ironically enough.
I hope that the band is working on another CD, three years on, and look forward to what they come up with.
