Title: Can't get past the accent: vocal and musical
Review: I can't say that I wasn't warned - I read the other reviews here - but I was persuaded that his American-accented Spanish would not be an issue. What can I say - for me, his accent is an intolerable distraction. I'm not a native Spanish speaker, but I'm familiar with wonderful renditions of Mexican standards performed by Mexican natives as well as Americans such as Eydie Gourme and Linda Ronstadt, and I hoped that Cole's work would approach those. It doesn't. His excessive articulation just emphasizes how far he misses the mark on expression of the feelings of the songs. He has a lovely voice, but this performance seems misguided.The musical arrangements are woefully American-accented as well. Overall, the album is faux-Latino.
