No es lo mismo (Edicion Gira)

西班牙歌神再次空降西班牙专辑榜冠军大碟 与古巴知名制作人Lulo Perez共同操刀，传奇佛朗明哥吉他手Paco de Lucia跨刀演奏 推荐曲：No Es Lo Mismo、Labana、Al Olvido Invito Yo、Regalame La Silla Donde Te Espere Where Are You From?‘西班牙！’ 2003年新专辑“No Es Lo Mismo”，由Alejandro与古巴知名制作人Lulo Perez共同操刀，除了请到Rod Stewart、Eric Clapton、Celine Dion等艺人的专辑录音师和混音师外，曾与Sting、Frank Zappa、Madonna、George Benson的合作乐手也在这张新专辑中共同出力，值得一提的是这张专辑还是在当年录制“Hotel California”和“Saturday Night Fever”等经典专辑，位于迈阿密的Criteria Studios/The Hit Factory完成的。"No Es Lo Mismo"如同Bruce Springsteen般的舒缓清唱下和着吉他弦色的伴奏下真的让人绕梁三日仍忘怀不了，太沧桑的"He Sido Tan Feliz Contigo"沙哑的歌声中透出了有爱的相伴所得满足感，"Try To Save Your Song"是首有趣的都会轻快的节奏加入那异趣的饶舌外，还添加了山塔那般的吉他速弹让整首曲子丰富有趣；"Labana"在打击乐节奏的铺陈与西班牙弦色，套在古巴式的歌曲中，在Alejandro的诠释下似乎闻到了椰香，瞥见花衬杉呢。人在高处不忘本的Alejandro创作的"Sandy A Orilla Do Mundo"就是让人了解地球只有一个要留下美好的给予未来而非短视近利棘手问题，些许的琴声在配些吉他拨弦就是"Al Olvido Invito Yo"，令人神伤在Alejandro的遂心声中更是让人落泪；"Lo Dire Bajito"简单的独唱与坎在心中的冰冷琴键如弦瑟的翻转让人黯然销魂的怆然，触及了内心的柔弱。 ‘Where Are You Going？’我想是西班牙吧！ From the album title (No Es lo Mismo means "it's not the same"), Alejandro Sanz is showing what this effort is all about. At first, something that was already known: he is not the same as any other Latin heartthrob like Chayanne, Emmanuel, or even Ricky Martin. He composes and produces his own material and, although not a great singer, he's a superb guitar player. Second, this album is not the same as any other Latin one. Sanz affords various topics (like social issues and commitment) not only related to love, dancing, and having a good time (probably the most common Latin stereotype). Third, this work (his first studio album since 2000's El Alma al Aire) is quite different from all the previous ones. For example in "Try to Save Your S'ong" he tries to rap, and gets some help from GQ in it. To his classic sound (Latin ballads plus flamenco), he adds hip-hop, bolero, and son flavors. The problem is that not all the things melt together smoothly. Things are more familiar in songs like "He Sido Tan Feliz Contigo" or "Eso," in which he seems to be more comfortable. Although it's not a masterpiece, it's a pretty good album by Latin pop standards.
