(More customer reviews)After thoroughly enjoying Carlos Vives' last tour-de-force "Dejame Entrar" I thought it would be impossible for the artist to match the integrity and musical genius the artist brough to that epic cycle. On "Rock de mi Pueblo" Vives delivers another set of free-style vallenato and pure anthems that combine refreshing melodies and catchy lyrics. I see this set as a continuation of the prior album - joyful and thoughtful at once, and deeply heartfelt. From the opening accordions that highlight "Comu Tu" - a number one track on Spanish radio at the moment - to the joyful "Gallito de Caramelo" and the album-capping "Duro", Vives sends a message to his people and all of his fans - he's here with something important to say and the words and music to say it with class, dignity and absolute fun. While some may complain the artist sticks to what he knows best and what he's delivered in the past, I see nothing wrong with that. If its true this album has a harder edge, that's fine too - all in all it adds up to a terrific set of melodies and lyrics that are sure to make you move your feet and enjoy. A terrific album from a true original.
