Avis sur le produitRicky Martin Live: Black and White Tour by Ricky Martin (CD, Nov-2007, Sony BMG)

Black and White and Disappointing

Let me first be clear, I am not a Ricky Martin drooler (I understand he has more than his share, lol!), but I do thoroughly enjoy his music. Sound Loaded is a terrific album, makes my hips wanna swivel, which is probably not good for any unbolted object within about a ten foot range.

I didn't have anything with Livin' La Vida Loca on it, and thought I'd like to have it on the Ipod, so I bundled down to Target to find one.

The only thing in the bin was "Black and White", so I snagged a copy.

This has to be just about the worst album in my extensive collection. The sound quality is horrible, the back up singers screech like fingernails raking down a chalkboard, the crowd noise is over the top (bully for him, but I prefer to be able to hear the MUSIC, hello?!)

But worst of all are the unrecognizable arrangements. Had he not uttered the words "La Vida Loca" I would not have had a clue it was the same song.

Inutterably awful CD from a fantastic artist. I never even made it to the end of the CD before ejecting it in disgust.

I did the unthinkable. I have never done this before. I put the CD out by the candy dish in my front office, hoping someone will pick it, and then I'll say "oh, please, take it WITH you!"

Sure, I'll still get a copy of La Vida Loca, but will look for the studio version instead.Lire l'avis complet...
