5 out of 5 stars Violeta Parra Gifted Poet.......2007-06-11

This is the best rendition of "Gracias a la Vida" because it is sung with heart and soul by the composer. All of her poetic songs are priceless and unique when song by Violeta.

5 out of 5 stars Violeta at her Best.......2007-02-02

Violeta shines so brightly in this collect that I consider it her best work. If you can only have one CD by Violetta, get this one!

The passion, the politics, and the raw folklore of the artist comes through with each unique work of art included here.

5 out of 5 stars You Will Fall in Love.......2005-04-11

I first learned about Violeta Parra when I read her poetry in Woman Who Has Sprouted Wings: Poems by Contemporary Latin American Women Poets. I was both struck with the poems and the circumstances of her life. Besides being a gifted writer, singer and musician, she painted and wove tapestries known in Chile as Arpilleras and was the first Latin American artist welcomed at the Louvre. A very accomplished woman, she nevertheless committed suicide in Santiago in 1967 at the age of 50.

When I found out she had CDs available I bought Las Ultimas Composiciones, an excellent collection of 14 songs ranging from sweet lyricism to driving resistance. It is the last recording issued in her lifetime and many of the songs include accompaniment by Alberto Zapican and Violeta's children, Isabel and Angel Parra. The version here of Gracias a la Vida is especially haunting. If you like Latin American folk music but have never heard of Violeta I think you will fall in love with her when you hear her songs.

    Latin America has produced dozens of brilliant female singers and composers, including trail-blazers like Violetta Parra, Elis Regina, Soledad Bravo and Mecedes Sosa, to mention only a few. The present generation is also shaping up nicely. There are more women bandleaders than ever before, firmly in charge of their own talent, free to choose their material and back-up players without interference. As they so often do, Putumayo has supplied a short-list of emerging stars; the voices heard on this album are uniformly splendid and worthy of deeper exploration. But there are a few stand-outs: Brazilian Mônica Salmaso's creamy dark voice makes a strong impression, as does Chilean chanteuse Jacqueline Fuentes's plaintive, fado-like mezzo and Lhasa's limpidly nostalgic Mexican ranchera. Some may cavil at yet another gender-based compilation. But they should consider that male-dominated equivalents have existed since the dawn of the recorded era; they were just not labeled as such. --Christina Roden

    Album Description

    Women of Latin America features exquisite and lyrical music by many of Latin America's greatest female artists.

    Customer Reviews:

    5 out of 5 stars Super addictive music.......2007-03-08

    The voices and songs of these women haunt you way after you've turned off the CD with incredible melodies and instrumental backups. I would buy one for all of my women friends for Women's Day, today!

    5 out of 5 stars Muy Hermosa! .......2005-05-27

    Women of Latin America is truly a sweet treasure. This is the first album that i have bought from this series. I am very glad i did. Each artists from this CD exemplifies a mood in their own way. At times sensual to haunting, sad, and hopeful, these artists truly are talented, beautiful, and powerful. I wish artists like these had more praise and attention than the artists these days that are nothing more but entertainers using just sex appeal to be noticed. This is what real music is about, even when you don't know a single word from the lyrics! I know Spanish pretty well, and im telling you, even the lyrics are "muy hermosa" and just incredible. This is an album worth having if you truly appreciate the passion and beauty of the Spanish language, and beautiful Latin American woman. Gozar de la musica de vida!

    5 out of 5 stars Vocal Prowess meets diverse styles.......2004-11-18

    The lovely women of Latin America profiled in WOMEN OF LATIN AMERICA  were chosen for their vocal prowess, their diverse styles, and their ability to appeal across cultures to a wide audience outside of as well as within Latin America.
    From Susana Baca to Lila Downs and Lhasa, Mexico to Columbia, WOMEN OF LATIN AMERICA is a recommended, diverse and lovely pick.

    5 out of 5 stars Epitome of Feminine Vocal Grace .......2004-11-12

    What a perfect intro CD to listeners new to Latin songs performed by some of the greatest female vocalists! The multifarious selection in the CD exposes the listeners to the rich spectrum of melodious, soothing, and sensual musical gifts that those female artists share with the rest of world with their grace. This CD also serves as a perfect ramification tool to deepen one's appreciation of any of the female vocalists listed. I like all of them and intend to purchase each vocalist's individual CD to further my understanding of her musical style and philosophy.

    5 out of 5 stars Mesmerizing.......2004-10-30

    These vocalists and the songs they sing are exquisite works of art. Each voice is distinctively rich and though I do not speak Spanish the words and rythms convey their own poetry,

    5 out of 5 stars New Song at it's very, very BEST. Victor Jara LIVES!.......2004-09-16

    Nueva Cancion (New Song)
    "You can't have a revolution without songs." This banner, suspended over Salvadore Allende after his election as president of Chile, shows the influence that the New Song movement had over the political process in Chile. In this case, songs were used to express support for Allende and his political ideals. New Song is an expression of the feelings of singers and songwriters for their country, and has had a great influence on the music of Chile and other Latin American countries.

    The traditional culture of a country is an extremely important influence in New Song. For example, the traditional music that Victor Jara learned from his mother had a great influence over his later work. With this respect for tradtional music also comes the use of traditional instruments. In addition, New Song artists have a great respect for the poor farmers and workers of the country who are responsible for carrying along traditions of music and culture. New Song is expressed by casting off materialistic things and focusing on the feelings and thoughts of the people of the country. This change in focus is not only a change in personal expression, however. New Song has been used as a political weapon to attack injust governmental systems. In sum, New Song has the belief that songs can be used to aleviate problems in a country. The power of New Song comes from its ability to begin and support a revolution within a country.

    All of the artists of New Song have several things in common. First, they possess a great love for the simple people of their country, and a great respect for the culture, instruments and music of these people. Second, the artist works to better the conditions in the country, especially for the poor farmers and workers. These people often do not have a leader who can express their needs, and the singers and songwriters of New Song give them a voice in government. As a result, the artists of New Song work to aliviate inequalities within their country.

    The history of New Song coincides with political events occuring in Latin America. Since before 1950, the United States has been exerting its influence on Central and South American countries. Many times, the United States has sought to manipulate events in these countries for their own benefit. Both educated and uneducated persons in these countries resent this influence, and many times the artists of New Song use this resentment as a basis for the themes of their songs. In addition, the political aims of New Song artists have often been opposing governments under the influence of the United States. The destruction of imperialism is an essential part of the use of New Song.

    New Song first began in Argentina when this country was under the Peron regime. In Argentina, New Song was used to revive the traditional songs of the country. So, the focus of New Song artists was on discovering and teaching traditional music of Argentina. When the New Song movement expanded to Chile, it began to try to influence the politics of the country. Violeta Parra was mainly responsible for the initial development of New Song in Chile. She was not only a student of the traditional music of Chile, but was also concerned with problems of injustice and poverty in the country. She got to know Victor Jara, and spent much time with him. The music of Victor Jara developed from a combination of the life experiences of Victor Jara and the knowledge of Violeta Parra. As can be clearly seen from reading about the life of Victor Jara, his music has a great impact on the future of his country. New Song reached its greatest impact in Chile with the election of Salvadore Allende. Allende was a member of the Popular Unity party, a coalition within the Communist Party of Chile, and ran under a reform platform. However, after a coup orchestrated by the Chilean right wing and the CIA, Allende was ousted and Victor Jara was brutally murdered. With the death of Victor Jara, the music and power of New Song began to grow within Chile. This occured despite the attempts of the government to supress New Song music. The music of Victor Jara and other singers was confiscated and banned from radio play, and two important New Song groups in Chile, Quilapayun and Inti Illimani, were forced to remain in exile from their native country for many years. But today, the ideas of New Song are returning to Chile. In 1990, there was a great celebration after the demise of an opressive dictatorship. The celebration, named "Free Song" in honor of Victor Jara, featured numerous groups playing traditional instruments and expressing the ideas of New Song.

    Besides Victor Jara's work in Chile, the ideas of New Song also had importance in other countries. For example, in Cuba the New Song movement was referred to as "Nueva trova." This movement supported the ideals of Fidel Castro's revolution within Cuba. The Cuban singers wrote songs in favor of the new government, and these songs helped keep people's spirits high, even during the bad times following the revolution. Pablo Milanes and Silvio Rodriguez are two singer/songwriters synonymous with New Song in Cuba. In Central American countries, New Song often served the opposite purpose, however. In these countries, New Song was often used as a powerful instrument in opposition of the government. For example, in Nicaragua and El Salvador, singers wrote songs favoring the revolution.

    Despite all of the forms of New Song, it is always a reflection of love for the people and traditions of a country. This love is often expressed as an opposition of societal injustices as a means to end these inequalities. The life and work of Victor Jara clearly demonstrate these characteristics of New Song.

      5 out of 5 stars Beautiful rock 'n' roll.......2005-11-13

      I was watching the Latin Grammy Awards last week when I learned that La Ley was disbanding. I was dismayed, especially when the group proceeded to perform an electrifying set that rocked the house.

      I always thought that Beto Cuevas was a rock star of the highest order: Sexy and piercing in his look, but intelligent and oozing sensitivy through his vocals and video performances. All the members of the band are top notch musicians, but Beto stands out. I wonder if he is going to go solo? I hope so. I really don't think I am ready to say goodbye.

      My favorites on this CD are "El Duelo" -- which will move you whether you speak Spanish or not -- "Aqui," "Al Final" and "Delirando."

      I recommend all La Ley's CDs: Check out "Libertad." The songs "Amate y Salvate," "Los Demas," and "Mas Alla" are superlative. If you really want to check out Beto's rock star quotient, the DVD for this Uplugged performance and for "Amate y Salvate" will make you a true believer. The earlier CDs are great too. On "Invisible," my favorites are "Deuxieme Fois" and "Dia Cero." The original version of "El Duelo" is here too.

      La Ley grew and created great music over the years, just like true artists should do.

      5 out of 5 stars Deserves more than 5 stars-Awesome!!!.......2005-03-26

      If you are not familiar with La Ley I recommend you buy this CD and go back and buy the rest of their CD's. Beto Cuevas has a talent he has a remarkable voice it's indescribable. Hear it and you'll know what I'm talking about, you'll fall in love (if your a girl :))pair that up with the music and you have a hit. He can sing unplugged and it's so perfect that you think your hearing the radio version. La Ley is the best Latin rock group out their-it's ashame so many people have not heard of them. Hear them now and buy it-people!!

      5 out of 5 stars Perfect!!!.......2004-07-19

      I saw La Ley live in concert recently at Webster Hall in NYC. Words can't express how incredible this band plays live. Beto Cuevas is trully a gifted vocalist who comfortably and eloquently uses the full range of his voice and delivers a perfect performance. Their unplugged CD a good example of how talented they are. The unplugged DVD is even better.

      5 out of 5 stars Unlike Mana, Deep, New and Innovative........2004-04-25

      With a better lead singer and an amplitude of variety between songs in comparison to Mana, La Ley has proved once again to have taken the crown that Soda Stereo left for best latin rock band. Besides "Mentira" the rest of the songs are not commercial or "pop" like other reviews said. This album lets you connect with the band's old and new style. Songs from most of their previous albums give you some deep inside feeling to what they have emerged to since 1989. "Dia 0", a song about a person that suffers from Amnesia is my personal favorite, but other songs like "Fuera De Mi", and "Al Final", provide you with a good taste of acoustic guitar, and symphonic strings, with the never dissapointing voice of Alberto Cuevas. His performance in "The Corridor" and "Krazyworld", demonstrate his versatile knowledge of not only the English, but also the French language. If you loved Soda and you are looking for a replacement, dont settle for the repetitive Mana, La Ley is your ticket. This album is probably the one you should buy first if you dont have any. But if you're a fan like me, you know this is just another example of greatness... La Ley has yet to make a dissapointing album.

      2 out of 5 stars Only if you're a fan of Mexican Pop.......2004-04-03

      I love the Mana unplugged CD and DVD and think it transcends language and most musical taste. Not the case with this one. All the folks who say "If you love MTV Unplugged, you'll love this" are off-base. Mana is like the Mexican Eagles - something for everyone with amazing instrumentals and vocals. Yeah these guys can play and sing, but too mushy for my taste- think Enrique Iglesias. Plugged in, these guys probably make great Latin Pop for all the (...) girls out there.

      I don't disagree that this album is different from the previous efforts... but I don't consider that a bad thing. I liked the trippyness and melodic synth stuff you could find on other albums. But this more straight-ahead rocker is more consistently appealing... it's like they were meant to rock a bit more all along.

      I never get tired of this melodic, rocking, passionate, intelligent CD. Not a bad song on here. I'm really looking forward to their next one as well.

      3 out of 5 stars 3.5 actually..........2006-11-28

      I give this album 3.5 stars because it's nowhere near Lucybell's masterpiece, "Amanece". Gone are the electronic passages in order to pursue a more hardened rock sound. It's not that the songs are bad, but it sometimes lacks a little bit of that something that made Lucybell different from the rest of the pack. The production is superb and the voice sounds amazing. I'm not really nuts about the new drummer as he plays in some songs as though it was a punk ensemble and lacks the psychedelic groove that the previous drummer had. All in all a solid effort but if you want the best from Lucybell, buy 'Amanece' or the self titled 'Lucybell'.

      5 out of 5 stars Beautiful.......2006-06-29

      I'm writing this for you English speakers out there... BUY THIS ALBUM! I've been following Lucybell for a long time now and believe that they may just be the best band out there... The music speaks for itself- melodious, haunting, attention-grabbing, heart-wrenching, mesmerizing... With all due respect, by the way, to Francisco (ex-drummer and attempted singer), Lucybell have truly become invincible with the addition of Cote Foncea on the skins! IT'S ABOUT TIME Lucybell gets the recognition they deserve- they sell out shows in their native Chile and pack houses across Latin America... now it's time to do the same when they come to the U.S. ... I'm currently in Japan and pissed that I won't be able to see them live but I will definitely be wearing this CD out like the the others!

      5 out of 5 stars A crowd pleaser.......2001-04-13

      We recieved this album as a gift from our friend in Cary, NC, and like her, I plan to give many more as gifts...No one in our family ever gets tired of this CD! If you listen to children's music with any frequency, you know that to be a minor miracle. From Grandma to our 2 year-old, everyone enjoys Bill Staines' music. His own songs are actually the ones we sing the most, but his versions of the classics are wonderful, too. This CD has earned a permanent spot in our car CD player, so we will have to buy another copy if we ever want to listen to it in the house. Thank you, Bill!

      5 out of 5 stars Our families all-time favourite CD.......2000-11-08

      I picked this CD up at a used CD store, and have purchased several new copies for gifts ever since. Our family enjoys listening to this at home and on the road. It is never annoying, like a lot of other children's music, and mixes old classics with the artists own songs (which are just as endearing). I highly recommend this CD. We were as pleased with his second children's album, One More River.

      5 out of 5 stars folk music for kids and parents to enjoy!.......2000-03-10

      My son (age 4) and I agree that THE HAPPY WANDERER is a wonderful cd. Staines has recorded here some classics (including "Kookaburra", "Home on the Range") along with his own songs, including a new children's classic, "A Place in the Choir." Staines' voice and instrumentation are lovely and straightforward. After a listen or two, we were singing along with several songs. Yet this recording never stoops to the saccharine sound so typical of many children's `artists'. THE HAPPY WANDERER reminds me of the Burl Ives' records I enjoyed during my childhood. This would make a great gift for any families that enjoy folk music.

        4 out of 5 stars beautiful music.......2007-01-30

        This is a brilliant album - Inti-Illimani, John WIlliams, Paco Peña? C'mon! This is music that will reward patient listeners. This is deeply soulful, social protest music. Non-Spanish speakers should try to track down the lyrics and find a way of translating them, to appreciate the meaning and the sentiment.
        As for the reviewer who copies and pastes the same review for all his reviews of Inti-Illimani's discs... "...the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende..." - I don't think one line in a review makes it a political venue, but you have just made it into one with your few paragraphs praising Pinochet.

        4 out of 5 stars Let us learn to appreciate their great music without..........2005-12-30

        It has been an enormous pleasure to listen to Inti Illimani for the past 20 years. Definitely great musicians and great recordings, to say the least. However the use of this review section as a political venue to praise Allende and call his deplorable and failed communist period in power exciting, and Pinochet's years "the frightening Pinochet years" (read reviews under The Best of Inti Illimani), can only come from the twisted mind of someone who still believes in 20th Century myths: the myth of Fidel Castro, the myth of Che Guevara, the myth of the proletariat, etc. Having survived 11 years in a communist country I know better, a lot better. All of us should by now. Unfortunately we do not. Look at Venezueza and now Bolivia, with the two puppets in power dancing to the music of Fidel Castro.
        Frightening years for whom? For the communists and all members of the red tribe of disciples of Fidel Castro, of course. Today, to still call Pinochet a dictator and Fidel Castro "president" is beyond comprehension. Look at Chile today. Can anyone believe it could have become what it is now without eliminating Allende's regime and crushing the communists?
        I give Inti Illimani an A for their music. Let us learn to appreciate their great music without praising their disastrous and failed political views. For that, they get capital F.

        5 out of 5 stars INTI'S MASTERWORK.......2005-11-13

        I used to buy Inti's LPs when I was 12 and I was schooling in Italy.
        It still remains one of my favourite musical groups of all time.
        Fragments of a Dream is, simply put, their masterwork, the one where Horacio Salinas reaches the greatest heights of inspiration in a blend I would call, at times, "modern Latin American baroque".
        It starts with a piece inspired by my fatherland's folk music, Sardegna, and ends with a dismantling-cum-reconstruction of the principle of the dance worthy of any great classical composer. Brilliant

        5 out of 5 stars Manns, Salinas, Peña, Williams, Inti una gran combinación........2000-05-08

        Esta reunión increible de músicos en Europa consagra a los Inti Illimani como artistas de mentalidad muy abierta, pues comparten trabajo con grandes personajes de la guitarra. Horacio Salinas despierta el punto de encuentro para exponer una hermosa obra que son lo más fiel del título del album FRAGMENTOS DE UN SUEÑO, primera parte de un gran trabajo que continuará en Leyenda.

        5 out of 5 stars Quisiera ser paloma para volar.......1999-05-07

        Se me saltaron las lagrimas escuchando En Libertad (son ya demasiados años fuera de mi tierra). Inti-Illimani buceando en sus raices hispanas, Inti-Illimani haciendo lo que saben hacer como pocos grupos en estos dias: crear musica con raices, de esa que te inunda el corazon de tristeza, de alegria, de melancolia, de nostalgia, de deseos de vivir.
