Title: Precious Gem...
Review: This album from Ruben Blades is richly textured and deeply moving. His thoughtful but still danceable pieces of music paint pictures of revolution and history, love and loss, and the underlying hope for all to reach out of themselves and make a better world. The first track, El Apagon, sets the stage almost cinematically. The songs about the loss of his mother are extraordinary - just thinking of them can bring a tear to the eye. This reviewer, however, finds the best take-home message from the track Piense en mi: "Nunca es demasiado tarde para ser feliz" - "it is never to late to be happy". BRAVO SENOR BLADES! Que Dios te bendiga para siempre!
