Silvio Music Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  Return
With "Silvio", Silvio Rodriguez began his 90's trilogy ("Silvio", "Rodriguez", "Dominguez"). Probably, "Silvio" is the best, or at leas the most accesible, of the three. It marks an apparent change in relation to his previous albums. In "Silvio", Rodriguez return to his former basic form--only guitar. The songs are all beatiful. The album shows also how creative Silvio is form in demonstring social engagement. The entire album talks about the Cuban economic and social crisis after the defeat of socialism in East Europe and the desappearing of USSR. The just-melody "Crisis" shows the improductivity of the epoch. "El Necio" is a declaration of compromise in times of threat to the revolution. Probably the most beautiful engage song of the album is "Monologo". There are homage both to Edgard Alan Poe ("Trova de Edgardo") and el Che Guevara ("Hombre"). "Quien fuera" is a wonderful love song, a man shows his lover the wishes to be mockingbird, or Lennon and McCarney, or Violeta Parra, or Sindo Garay, or just her trovador. "La canción" declares the ambiguos estatus of the music between the bussines and the real human company.

Purchase Silvio CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Lenny Kravitz Greatest Hits CD (2000)
Silvio
 $10.59   
"Again" won the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance and was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Rock Song.
For the five albums prior to the release of GREATEST HITS, Kravitz doggedly mined the influence of late-1960s/early-'70s icons Jimi Hendrix, the Beatles, Sly Stone, and Curtis Mayfield, churning out groovy, guitar-heavy music that updated those classic sounds without necessarily reinventing them. But all of this, ironically, is to his credit, because it is the overwhelming familiarity of Kravitz's sound that holds such powerful appeal.
GREATEST HITS collects Kravitz's best-known singles under one cover, from the blazing Hendrix-inspired opener "Are You Gonna Go My Way" to the Philly Soul ballad "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over" (complete with backing strings) to his stadium-tailored cover of the Guess Who's "American Woman." The set reaches back to Kravitz's 1989 debut, LET LOVE RULE, and up to 2000's previously unreleased single "Again," showcasing, all the while, the performer's knack for pleasure-triggering songcraft, singing, and production. Though some critics may thumb their noses at Kravitz's blatantly retro music, his tunes are undeniably raucous, catchy, and fun.
Personnel includes: Lenny Kravitz (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars, sitar, bass, drums); Abraham Appleman, Elena Barere, Barry Finclair, Regis Iandiorio, Jean Ingraham, Paul Peabody, Joel Pitchon, Richard Sortomme, Dale Stuckenbruck (violin); Lamar Alsop, Julien Barber, Susan Pray (viola); Richard Locker, Eugene Moye, Mark Shuman, Fred Zlotkin (cello); Richard Sarpola (bass).
Engineers include: Henry Hirsch, Kevin Halpin.

UNICORNIO is a 10-track digitally-remastered 1995 release by Latin artist Silvio Rodriguez, including "Por Quien Merece Amor" and "Cancion Urgente Para Nicaragua."
Digitally remastered of the 1995 album from the Cuban singer/songwriter whose tender balladry offshoots his hard-edged, politically-slanted lyrics. A spearhead of the nueva trova (New Ballad) style of nueva cancion (New Song), Rodriguez masterfully blends romantic tunes with protest material condemning colonization and the tyranny that swept through Latin America in the late '60s and early '70s.
