Movie Reviews of Alejandro Sanz - MTV Unplugged
Movie Review: A warm and personal concert
Summary: 5 Stars
This concert DVD is unlike the CD of the same name, which may account for people's poor reviews - the CD is in a different category, with some songs re-recorded (there appear to have been two concerts), and with applause added where there was none in the actual concert (in the middle of "Toca para mi" for example). In fact, the concert was not edited to perfection, and includes a not very polished version of "Y solo se me ocurre amarte" in which Sanz varies the lyrics, skips a line or two, and gets ahead of the musicians at one point.
So why give it a rating of five? This is the concert that hooked me - Alejandro Sanz always sounds good, but has rarely sounded *this* good - warm, personal, emotional, crafting each song, and connecting with his audience. This recording includes a brilliant version of "Toca para mi", not usually heard live, and a new version of "Se le apago la luz" that was so much better than the original version (from his first album) that he included this live Unplugged version on his greatest hits album.
The concert shows his very sweet persona, shy at times, but utterly in control of his voice, backed by three talented guitarists and a full orchestra. The audience is unable to resist joining in on "Corazón partío", and we also get to hear for the first time his song "Aprendíz", previously performed only by Malú. The other songs are a nice mix of early and mid-career songs, including the powerful "Cuando nadie me ve", "Siempre es de noche", and a completely rewritten version of "Como te echo de menos," with all new lyrics.
I loan out this DVD to people to get them interested in Sanz and it always works; a CD is easy to ignore, but the charisma and the powerful voice and sincere emotion that come through on the DVD always pull people in.
