When they exploded out of the gates on their 2004 debut, Contraband, Velvet Revolver were met with as much diffidence as appreciation. After all, supergroups have tended to detonate as often as succeed, and with vocalist Scott Weiland, bassist Duff McKagan, and guitarist Slash all vying to keep the lit match away from the fuse, the odds against this band ever seeing album #2 were even money at best. Surprise! Not only have Velvet Revolver survived three years with unreckless abandon, this album blows the doors off its predecessor. Save a pair of disinfected ballads ("The Last Fight," "Gravedancer"), Libertad is all about hand-grenade chords, drag-racing riffs, and circus-tent choruses. The ageless McKagan and Slash continually gun for the disorderliness of their former band (most notably on the punkish opener "Let It Roll" and its lewd brother "Spay"), while Weiland sounds--knock on wood--positively clean and like a voice of boisterous renewal on tracks like "Mary Mary," "She Builds Quick Machines," and the melt-in-your-mouth cover of ELO's "Can't Get It Out of My Head." Obviously egos have been checked at the studio door, as Velvet Revolver have already exceeded their anticipated existence. And now that existence goes back on the clock, trying to outshine a second album that's head-and-shoulders better than the first. --Scott Holter

Put the earphones on and don't run away!.......2007-08-06

The new Velvet Revolver effort Libertad lives up to its predecessors standards and in some way surpasses it. It may sound kind of dumb but if GNR and STP did the nastys this would be their offspring. Some of the songs sound like "hey wasn't that on the STP alblum No. 5?!?" or "Isn't that the solo from november rain?" Although it sounds like its own effort in its own right.. occasionally if you listen closly the ghosts of the Deleo brothers or Axle wisper in the background. But like I said put the earphones on your head lock the door and let her play a few times... Songs to watch out for :

#5: THE LAST FIGHT
-This is the first song that stuck out at me. Slash playing a lighter dixielandish non-distorted guitar.

#7: AMERICAN MAN
-Listen for the spanish scales that blissfully appear one min in the song.

#10: CAN'T GET IT OUT OF MY HEAD
-This is the song where if you listen closly a little bit of november rain drips in.

#13: GRAVEDANCER & RE-EVOLUTION
-Ill give you 5 dollars if this does not get stuck in the ol noggin.. Re-Evolution is a gem in itself. Classic western ballade.

Libertad.......2007-08-04

Not as strong as the first album but one that grows on you the more it is played. The tour promoted it well and having seen Welland perform I think his live vocal performances are better than on the CD

Evolutionary Album.......2007-08-03

Soaring high above the masses, these men are exceptional rockers and never a disappointment. Definately more melodic than their debut, but in finds these guys more as 1 unit than on Contraband. Emotional and raw and driving it home like only these veterans can. The cover of the ELO song is awesome for this old timer who grew up in that era. Fun times.

Libertad -- An Awesome Achievement In Modern Rock.......2007-08-01

Before Velvet Revolver's sophomore album, Libertad, was released, there was much to say of the band--the "super group" of five members consisted of three from Guns N' Roses, one from the Stone Temple Pilots, and one that had never been in an official band before. Their debut effort, 2004's Contraband, was packed with hard-rocking GN'R style hits like "Sucker Train Blues," "Do It for the Kids," "Fall to Pieces," and of course the unforgettable "Slither". Libertad, which is the band's powerful second album, is no disappointment and has everything a Velvet Revolver fan could want. The band start off this legendary recording with a Use Your Illusion era GN'R-esque song called "Let It Roll," which contains very catchy guitar riffs by Slash and an excellent vocal performance by Scott Weiland. This is followed by the hypnotic "She Mine," which also has perfect chords by Slash. "Get Out the Door," the third track, is also an excellent addition to the album and is the one of the many ideal songs in Velvet Revolver's catalog. The fourth track, which undoubtedly by now the band's most popular song to date, could be called the "Welcome to the Jungle" of Velvet Revolver. This megahit, called "She Builds Quick Machines," is some of Slash's best work to date--not just Slash, but the entire band. Filled to the brim with awesome lyrics and stellar drumming, this song was surely a definitive make for the album. After the listener gets a taste of how hard Velvet Revolver can rock, the band settle down a bit with "The Last Fight," a beatiful ballad with more awesome work by Weiland and Slash. This four-minute piece is also already a fan favorite, and if you've heard it I think you'll agree. The next track is what I like to call the "Voodoo Child" of the 21st century. This song, appropriately called "Pills, Demons and Etc." features crazy wah-wah pedal guitar licks by Slash and fast-paced bass and vocals by Duff McKagan and Scott Weiland. Along with the latter five, the listener can also tell that much effort was put forth in this song. Another hit would have to be the ninth track, "Just Sixteen". Quite similar to the style of "She Builds Quick Machines," it also shows how the band can be very heavy at times. "Gravedancer," which is the second-to-last song on the original album, is songwriting at its best. An awesome wah influenced guitar solo by Slash and soft, efficient vocals by Weiland make this song surpass even "November Rain," a song which was Guns N' Roses' biggest ballad in their day. The country side of Velvet Revolver can be heard on the fourteenth and final track of the album, "Re-Evolution". What can be considered as the band's take on blues influenced country, it is probably the oddest standout from any album I've ever heard; it's sort of funny, in a way. There was also a deluxe edition of this album made, containing two bonus tracks: "Messages," a powerful ballad which is a strong reminder of "The Last Fight," and "Psycho Killer," which, in my opinion, serves as an excellent alternate close-up for an already awesome album. The overall impression of Velvet Revolver's sophomore album is strong and spellbinding, and has something that every rock fan can enjoy. This is something you won't want to miss out on.

tangos.......2006-08-06

This is a wonderful cd for people who love tangos...Libertad Lamarque had her own unique style and she expressed her music in a manner full of emotion and from the heart!

A great artist.......2005-09-04

Libertad Lamarque will always be in the memory of those who have listened to her or seen her work as an actress. This album is a really golden collection of her "tango" singing. Once you listen to her, you'll play this CD over and over again.

Libertad Lamarque will be missed-her recordings will go on........2000-12-19

I've had Libertad Lamarque's album Tangos Imortales on vinyl since my mother gave it to me as a birthday present in 1975. In fact I live near the street where the now defunct record shop where mom bought it was! I was thrilled to hear this fine LP is available now on CD. To be honest, I didn't listen to the CD since I know all the songs by heart and it's in mono anyway. Did you know in the TV movie Evita Peron Rita Moreno's charcter was based on Libertad Lamarque? Her legendary battles with star-turned-politcian Eva Peron got her exiled to Mexico. Argetntina's loss is the world's gain. I especially liked the male vocalist on Cantando and Adios Muchachos later became the english language song I Get Ideas. A Media Luz is fun to listen but Plegaria is the most dramatic song on the album(as if the album needed a dramatic song) and it's not sampled on this website! Oh well!The lady died on Dec. 12 at aged 92 in Mexico City. Having worked for over 70 years she will be missed but her recordings will go on. Tangos Imortales is not to be missed by ANY music fans

a bright star from the past.......2000-08-29

This fabulous actress and singer is an Argentine treasure. She sings with such passion and sincerity, and her sparkling voice (even though these recordings are from many years ago) sounds crystal clear and full of life.

Her rendition of "Nostalgias" is wonderful, as is "La Cumparsita", and the spoken section of "Inspiración" will give you a glimpse of what a luminous presence she was on film. Though I confess, I don't normally appreciate the female voice, Libertad Lamarque holds a special place in my heart and in my CD collection.

Libertad Lamarque has a beautiful voice........1999-10-01

Libertad Lamarque has a beautiful voice that is full of emotion. When you listen to her sing you are taken to the "place" she is at. I and my mother enjoy her music very much and am looking forward to acquiring more of her music. Please offer more of her music. Thank you

Album Description

Limited edition international two disc (CD PAL/Region 0 DVD) edition of the Rock supergroup's 2007 sophomore album contains a 30-minute documentary filmed on the band's 2007 South American Tour. After such a massively successful debut album, the anticipation is high for this sophomore realease from the hard rockin' band featuring former members of Guns 'N Roses and Stone Temple Pilots, not only because they are a great band, but also because of the fact that most people thought they would self-destruct long ago. Libertad is a bold move forward from their blistering debut album while keeping their feet solidly on the foundation of searing Hard Rock. 13 tracks. Sony/BMG. 'LIBERTAD' IS A BOLD MOVE FORWARD FROM THEIR BLISTERING DEBUT ALBUM. WHILE KEEPING THEIR FEET SOLIDLY ON THE FOUNDATION OF SEARING HARD ROCK, THIS ALBUM BROADENS THE BANDS SOUND TO NEW LEVELS OF CREATIVITY. THE FIRST SINGLE 'SHE BUILDS QUICK MACHINES' SETS THE TONE WITH ITS MENACING AGGRESSION. ON 'LIBERTAD' THAT SONG IS JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG. SONGS LIKE 'THE LAST FIGHT', 'GET OUT THE DOOR', AND 'FOR A BROTHER' SHOW THAT IN THE LONG TERM, 'LIBERTAD' HAS POTENTIAL TO TAKE VELVET REVOLVER TO EVEN GREATER HEIGHTS. Sony/BMG. * Please note you will need an All Code DVD player to view.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

Delirious has done it again.......2003-12-17

I give Delirious "Libertad" 5 stars because now a whole new range of people can be reached. Libertad is bascially the Cutting Edge series but in spanish, it features only 12 songs.
I've been a fan of the band for over 3 years now and I always wished the band could do some recordings in spanish. Then one day I heard Libertad was being released. Martin Smith voice in spanish was absolutely great. Starting with 'Did you feel the mountains tremble' and ending with 'obsession' you will love this album. I've recommended this album to all my spanish speaking friends and they loved it. Delirious has a message that most spanish christian bands don't have. If you have a spanish speaking friend recommend this album to them they will love it. It will take them deeper with their God!

A spanish coleection of Delirius.......2003-05-12

U hear the music of Delirius many times, a peaceful music, a power rock in other, but the music of Delirius is fantastic for the lovers of praise and worship in a contemporany style, in this Cd, the band try to keep the same impact in a beauty language, Spanish - Español, but no take songs of the recient albums, the group recolected song of his first two albums, and take the same track, but the only diference of the language, i recomended buy this CD, is great oportunity to hear a great album of this group, tryng to down the wall of latin countries, and show his music in a language what every latino reality enjoy.

Libertad Lamarque CD.......2007-03-20

My mother loves it, did you know she was self taught to be a singer? I am looking for movie titles now with her in it for my mother she likes this artist and many others like her. She was also born with natural red hair and green eyes, uncommon among Mexican citizens.

Latin America's Sweetheart at Best!.......2006-12-14

The problem with reviewing any of the dozens of Libertad Lamarque CD anthologies is the endless repetitions of the same material by BMG. For years this firm has antagonized fans and collectors by releasing haphardously selected material from Miss Lamarque's recordings and then re-releasing it in countless "greatest hits" CDs.

They shock your ears by listing in no chronological order whatsover and without any warning, Libertad's recordings from the late 20s mixed with performances from the 1990s, then go back to the 1940s and jump to the 1960s. Obviously they are ignoring the fact that Miss Lamarque recorded from 1926 until the late 1990s and that her voice changed dramatically through the decades.

They are also ignoring most of Libertad's recorded output and giving consumers the same old stuff over and over again. If you are a Miss Lamarque collector you probably own most of the recordings on this double-disc so, at this point, you shouldn't bother. If you are interested in owing ONE anthology of Libertad's best recordings I suggest you consider this one for the following reasons:

1. Disc 1 contains some of Libertad's greatest hits from the mid 1930's through the late 1940s includig such "must have" tunes as "Madreselva", "En Esta Tarde Gris", "Sombras Nada Mas", etc. all tangos recorded in Argentina.
2. Disc 2 moves on to Mexico in the 1950s with a generous sampling of her legendary Maria Grever selections ("Cuando Vuelva A Tu Lado", "Jurame", etc.)as well as cuts from her excellent album "La Novia de America" with standards from every Latin American country including "En Mi Viejo San Juan", "Mis Noches Sin Ti", and "Maria de la O."

In short this is a decent Libertad Lamarque anthology for the beginner as long as you remember that over 60% of her best recordings remain unedited and locked in the BMG vaults.

Libertad- Movie Star and Personality, mediocre singer.......2003-01-23

The stength of the CD is that 40 Spanish and Latin American songs are included. The weakness is in Ms Lamarque's rendition. She has a small nasal voice that shatters at the top of the range when tested (hear the Maria la O track). Interpretation wanders all over the place and she does better in the Argentine repertoire. In the Latin repertoire her interpretation varies from idiosincratic to laughable (hear "Echame a mi la culpa").
You can do better with other artists.

A nice collection of Libertad Lamarque songs.......2001-11-17

This set of CDs with 40 songs should be of interest to Libertad Lamarque fans.
CD 1 contains mostly tangos such as: Besos Brujos, Caminito, La Cumparsita, A Media Luz, Uno and Madreselva which are my favorites but there are other good renditions.
Although the sung tango is largely the domain of male artists such as Carlos Gardel and Hugo del Carril, Libertad Lamarque more than holds her own in this musical form.
CD 2 has Jurame, Cuando Vuelva a Tu Lado, Cielito Lindo, and Maria La O. plus other Latin American favorites.

Born in Argentina to an anarcho-syndicalist she was named "Libertad" by her father, which means "freedom" in spanish. Here is a collection of rare and until now hard to find recorded hits of "La Novia de America" (America's Bride)as the great late most famous Argentinian female singer and movie star was also known. Listen to "Luna","Verde Mar", "Cosas de Amor", "Cancion de Cuna" and other early recorded hits, previously unreleased except at the time after their recording, in their original 78 rpm format of the late 30's to mid 40's. This great compilation also contains two of Libertad's recorded ventures into Afro-Cuban music, when she recorded Cuba's "El Tumbaito" and "Facundo", two unforgettable blockbuster hits of the 1940's. Do not miss this exciting compilation of previously hard to get or impossible to find early recorded hits by Argentina's and Latin America's most loved and remembered singer-movie star Libertad Lamarque.
