Movie Reviews of Freddy Fender: The King of Tex-Mex Live
Movie Review: good collection of dance songs
Summary: 4 Stars
This lovely lady from Zimbabwe enjoyed a couple of hits which helped shape the future of dance music. Then she caught up in the web of a major label who wanted to make her a soul diva and her career stalled. This collection is a gem which reminds us of what could have been. Rozalla released 3 albums and the best of these albums has been included here, and also a previously unreleased track, the cool Live another life.Taken from her first album Everybody's free are the famous title track, Faith and Are you ready to fly? These are great dance songs with a message of positivy and hope. Everybody's free reached #37 on billboard but deserved much better. Yes, it is also THAT song which was featured on the Sunscreen song!
Her second album was much weaker but Rozalla picked simply the best. They also come in their European mixes which are more enjoyable. The best thing about this CD are Don't go lose it baby, Rain come down, Sundown and Pride: all tracks from her 3rd album Coming Home and all unavailable in the US until now. The only thing one could have wished for is that Leave it to me was also included; a nice ballad which captures Rozalla at her best.
Best of Rozalla is a fine collection by a great dance artist who deserves more recognition. There's not a bad song on this album.
