Free Music Review: Respect to Bachata
Hit: 4 Stars
This is a thorough, respectable and enjoyable compilation of electric bachata. Most bachata compilations are put out by artist labels, and so only have tracks by artists on the label roster, but Rough Guide to Bachata is independent and features a broader selection. The artists on this album are among bachata's best known - with the notable omission of Aventura. Although songs like Antony Santos' "Por mi timidez" and Frank Reyes' "Princesa" are true classics, one criticism of Rough Guide is that many of the tracks are not the best known ones by the particular artist.
Bachata went electric in the 1990s, and so Rough Guide's selections are all songs released in the 90s or later. For earlier, rootsier acoustic bachata, Bachata Roja: Acoustic Bachata From the Cabaret Era is an excellent choice.
All in all, the music on Rough Guide to Bachata flows nicely, and it certainly makes a good introduction to electric bachata and is also a nice choice for a dance party.
The Rough Guide to Bachata Poster
An irresistible and vibrant dance form, bachata calls people of all ages to dance to its infectious rhythms. Originally from the Dominican Republic, bachata's popularity has rippled out to Latin America, the USA and beyond. Filling the soul with impassioned lyrics of love and betrayal, this album features some of the finest bachateros and is bursting with dynamic rhythms and beautiful guitar arpeggios.International Music CDs
