5 out of 5 stars A legacy to be very grateful for.......2003-06-23

Belisario Carlos Pilago, in a fine tribute to Polo, "Despues del Adiós a Polo Montañez," concludes that Polo "was simple in his greatness, and great in his simplicity." Well said, and true of this disk as well as the first one. Fortunately for the world, Polo was discovered as a result of "Guajiro Natural" and quickly rose to stardom in Cuba and Latin America. Colombia was especially kind to Polo and he gratefully returns the favor. Despite his fame, which it's said he never took very seriously, he kept his music pure and genuine. There is no sign in this disk of selling out to attain some kind of popularity -- in fact, there are a couple of good-natured but satirical remarks to the contrary. Yet, the songs on this disk are sadder in tone than on "Guajiro Natural" overall, the lyrics more tragic, and I would rank a couple of them (e.g., "Guitarra Mia", "El Bien de los Dos") along with the greatest I've heard. Some of the songs seem as though they could have been written by Miguel Matamoros himself. A few of the songs also, such as "Desde Abajo" and "Ultima Canción", have turned out to be eerily prophetic. Listening to this disk brings a deep mixture of gratitude, that we have another recording from Polo, and sadness, that he is no longer with us. He had only a brief while to leave us what he has, but it is golden, and we should be grateful for it.
