"MATT BIANCO IS ONE OF THE FEW ARTISTS THAT JUST MAKES YOU WANT TO GET UP AND DANCE UNTIL YOU CAN'T DANCE NO MORE. FROM HIS BALLADS TO HIS FUN LATIN FLAVORED "POP", COLLABORATORS MARK FISHER AND MARK RIELLY CAN DO IT ALL!!! IF MATT BIANCO IS EVER IN YOUR HOME TOWN, THIS IS A MUST SEE CONCERT!!"

One of the Best Latino Sounding albums in English !

"Matt Bianco does it again with Gran Via ! Released in 1995 after the limited release of their U.S.A. project titled Another Place, Another Time (released on the JVC label). Another Place, Another Time is now out of print. However, anyone who owned that release will see a continuation of both theme and sound in Gran Via.Ironically, the ballad track Love Life which appears on Gran Via was also previously released on Another Time, Another Place... Matt Bianco no longer sounds like their earlier efforts of synthesized Samba with singer Basia. This time it's a more mature and natural sounding style of adult, contemporary, jazz-pop feel garnished with a lot of Latin/salsa influences.Mark Reilly's vocals are light but as always still deliver and suit this particualr style of music perfectly."

One of the best

"One of the 4 best MB albums (out of now 11!!), with "Victim of Love" one of their best songs ever. Ranging from House to R+B and Blues, their spectrum is just amazing and just shows what excellent musicians they are."
