Album Details Two Years on Since his Debut Solo Album, the Ex-vocalist of Los Fabulosos Cadillacs Delivers Another Wonderful Set Fusing Latin Styles. There Are Hints of Bolero, Heavily Percussive Latin Beats by Ex-los Piojos Daniel Buira. The Album Opens with "Los Caminos De La Vida", Borrowed from the Mexican Cumbia Group Los Diablitos and Adapted to Vicentico's Polyrhythmic Synthesis with Accordion Played by his Son Florian. The Album features Guest Appearances from Julieta Venegas, Lucho Gonzalez, Flavio Cianciarullo (Ex-fabulosos Cadillacs Bassist) and a Remake of Ruben Blades' Classic "Tiburon". Similar CDs

CD ReviewsGood cd, with some great songs worth hearing... M. B. Alcat | Los Angeles, California | 03/08/2005 (3 out of 5 stars) "Vicentico is an Argentinian artist who before trying his luck as a soloist was part of a really wonderful band, "Los Fabulosos Cadillac". "Los Rayos" is already his second album: the first was "Vicentico". In an interview, he said that he chose the name of the album on a whim, and that the title can mean something different to everybody: "Me gusta la idea de 'Los rayos'. No tiene un sentido que pueda ser pensado. Las cosas que me gustan tienen que ver más con un conocimiento oculto de las cosas. Son simplemente ideas o imágenes que tiñen al disco. Uno dice 'los rayos' y cada cual se imagina lo que quiere. Cada persona tiene una idea diferente de las cosas". I found two of the songs included in this cd specially good: "Los caminos de la vida" and "Tiburón". I also like the fact that "Los Rayos" includes a collaboration of Mexican singer Julieta Venegas, an artist whose work I appreciate. On the whole, this cd is interesting, but I cannot guarantee that you will love it, and that is the reason why I only give it 3 starts out of five. On the other hand, if I could get my hands on a "Vicentico's greatest hits album" that unfortunately doesn't exist yet, and that included the two songs I mentioned above, and "Se Despierta la Ciudad", "Culpable" and "Algo Contigo" from Vicentico's previous album, I would recommend it quite loudly to all those who cared to hear :) So, it is up to you. If you want, wait (a long time) for a future release of Vicentico's most popular songs, or try to hear at least some of his songs now. Your choice... Belen Alcat" Vicentico's open minded approach to music Chenque | Rotterdam, The Netherlands | 08/10/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "During my last stay in Argentina half a year ago I read about Los Rayos from Vicentico, to me an unknown artist. Ever since then I have been playing this record many times with many of my friends and litte son (he loves the fast rhythmic song "Tiburon" (Shark)). The record gives you a wide variety of modern latin music, there is some salsa, cumbia (opening song "Los Caminos de la Vida"), pop songs and also folkloric sounds. Above all the song writing is of a very high level, original and never boring. Vicentico has defintely stolen my heart with this disc."
