  Excellent! April 21, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In an environment of free speech it is expected that someone would say something negative about this album. I must disagree strongly, Marc Anthony shows and shares the wonderful gift that has been given to him.
As they say "imitaion is the sincerest form of flattery". Somone else said it best when they said that Hector lavoe would be proud of Marc Athony.
This album sounds great, and if you like Lavoe, you will not be let down if you get this cd.
  Now that's Groovy April 14, 2008 Every time the CD goes on we can't help but start wiggling. It's a really well mixed CD and full of groovy tunes. Highly recommend it!
  Does marc Anthony sound like Hector Lavoe?NAH!! February 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was lucky enough to have seen Hector live many times.The El Cantante CD was 100% Marc Anthony...which isn't bad because Marc is a good singer in his own right.I cannot put he and Hector in the same category.Marc did the best "Marc" he could,when it came to some of the songs...he tried to give it a Hector Lavoe flavor,which was ok.In no way shape or form did he sound like Hector.His Che Che Cole was HORRIBLE!!!I did love his version of El Cantante,he gave me goose bumps near the end of the song,made me "Feel it".His two slow songs{boleros} were very romantic.I had never heard Hectors version of these two,they are beautiful and bring me to tears everytime!I recommend the Cd.By the way,skip the last song..it's Jennifer and it's terrible.
  If you love the genre, its a great album. February 11, 2008 I bought this album for my wife and she loves it. If you are into Marc Anthony and his style, this album is fantastic. You don't need to have seen the film to enjoy it.
The only complaint was that its only like 39 minutes.
  Bravo! January 25, 2008 One person says Marc Anthony did a bad job at imitating Lavoe, another says Marc should have been more like himself instead of imitating Lavoe. What do I say? I say that of course, this cd isn't going to be exactly like Lavoe, and it shouldn't be expected, because it's done by *another person*.
I loved this cd, except for the last song. It's Jennifer Lopez singing a slow one, and it wasn't in the movie, so it has no business being on the soundtrack.
Anywho, even though I love Hector Lavoe and his incredible talent, I'm a die hard Marc Anthony fan. Imho, he did a FANTASTIC job both acting and singing in this movie. It's definitely noticable that Marc Anthony is not singing as himself on this cd, but doing the best that he can to sing like Lavoe.
Take J-Lo off the cd, and it would be perfect.
