Marc Anthony - The Concert from Madison Square Garden (2001) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)A live broadcast for HBO from Madison Square Garden in 2000, this 2 hour show is energy filled and a winner for salsa lovers; the camera work and editing are excellent, and it must have been challenging to follow Marc Anthony as he dances his way across the stage. He is super-charged and looks great in all black, with a knee-length jacket and his trademark sunglasses.
The musicians are incredible, and keep up with Marc every step of the way, and the audience reaction is like an ocean of applause and cheers, that clearly overwhelms Marc with emotion at times.
The DVD "Extras" include the video of "When I Dream at Night".
As Marc is fond of saying, "check it out, baby !"
The songs:
1: "Y Hubo Alguien", a wild salsa number to start the show with.
2: "Contra la Corriente", the title song to his terrific 1997 CD.
3: "You Sang to Me"
4: "When I Dream at Night"
5: "Hasta Ayer". My favorite song of the show ! the concert is worth viewing for this number alone; guitarist Nelson Gonzales does a marvelous solo on this one.
6: "Si Te Vas". more wild salsa.
7: "Nadie Como Ella". Tito Puente does a drum solo on this one.
At this point in the concert Marc Anthony does some introductions: Ruben Blades, and Julia Roberts and Benjamin Bratt who are in the audience.
8: "Don't Let Me Leave". Aaron McLain does a nifty electric guitar solo on this song.
9: "Remember Me". A lovely, poignant ballad.
10: "My Baby You". An emotional ballad dedicated to Marc's daughter Arianna, which moves Marc to tears after singing it.
11: "Te Conosco Bien". Back to the salsa.
12: "Da la Vuelta". Mas salsa !
13: "Preciosa". An ode to beautiful Puerto Rico.
14: "That's Okay". Great dance number.
15: "I Need to Know". I love this tune ! Wonderful melody and rhythm, impossible to refrain from dancing when this is playing.

The Last Review

(More customer reviews)When I heard the first song "Por Un Segundo" I automatically knew I wasn't going to download the album . . . I BOUGHT IT!!!. This is one of the best CD's I've heard so far. I love how they put new genres into their music, It is as how Romeo said it at the Premios Lo Nuestro, " . . . We want to explore different fields of music. . .". I love how it starts with romeo giving a great beginning, loved how the songs were set, My favorite song is "TU JUEGUITO" just hearing it makes anyone think of what love really is. I have to do say that few songs were predictable however I love the effects that were inserted in each song. Every song has their own little twist or effect that makes them unique in their own special way. I love the skit, I don't know why but a phone call to Aventura's Manager is something you don't expect at all, it was real original. My only problem with the album is the ending, "Gracias" was a great song but in my view personally it would been better if Romeo would said something real passionate with a low sound of hip&hop bachata or something like that. But the end was funny, and it was still good. In my view Romeo is one of the best singers of our era, because whenever he sings there's a connection that makes us (The Listeners) feel every emotion that he wants to deliver. The way he "twist" his voice is just phenomenal. When I say twist I mean how he goes from high pitch voice, to low, and switches it up again without any flaws. Now Yeah I do understand that probably they edit his voice to a certain volume, However the feeling belongs to his voice. There's just something that makes us keep listening to his every song. Romeo was built for greatness and will go down as "EL HEREDERO DE BACHATA" because there is no greater bachatero than him, and if in the future there is somebody better then I'm Looking forward to hearing his/her voice. Because Romeo's voice is phenomenal, then her/his voice has to be PERFECT.
Great CD, can't wait until Romeo's solo comes out

With this record, Aventura has once again "taken it up a notch."This record includes performances by Akon, Ludacris, Wyclef Jean, Wisin & Yandel and Arturo Sandoval. "Gracias" features the performances of the virtuoso accordion player Geovanny Polanco – a star in Perico Ripiao – and affirmation of the Dominican roots shared by the members of the band.There are songs with influences of Bollywood, R & B, Reggaeton, Rock and Trio music – all mixed up and fused in Aventura\'s innovative style – the sound which has captivated audiences world wide.There are love songs, songs about heartbreak, social commentary – a little of everything – all communicated through Romeo\'s magical lyrics. There is also a song written and performed by Henry entitled "Princesita."

Iconos Review

(More customer reviews)Marc can sing so many different styles of music. His voice is so beautiful, passionate, powerful and amazing!! It makes sense for him to record an album of these beautiful classic songs. I don't think he should only sing one style of music. Yes his great with salsa. But his voice is way too good to sing only salsa music. I love the album! Love the arrangements, the music, the lyrics, and especially the way Marc sings these romantic songs. He is the best! I especially love the two new original songs. I think this is Marcs best work to date. His voice is even better than ever. Can't wait to see what else he has in store for us.
