Title: Mas Canciones = More Mediocrity
Product review: I applaud Linda's choice to make a difficult cross-over and bring mainstream attention to the genre. However, now that her marketing dollars got your attention, you have the opportunity to buy a better product. Linda is a fine singer, but if we compare her to others who spent their entire careers in this genre then she falls short. Her voice is monotonous...she only has one color and one technique (open with lots of vibrato) & her phrasing is quite poor (in Spanish). Do yourself a favor and buy Lola Beltran, Amalia Mendoza or Hermanas Padilla instead. Further, she cannot even claim to be the best Chicana in the genre...that honor would belong to Alicia Juarez the last wife of Jose Alfredo Jimenez.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
