Marc Anthony

The perfect Latin Balladeer...

Review Score:

(6/10)
I'll admit it: if you compare Ricky Martin, Enrique Iglesias and Marc Anthony for the looks, then the guy has no winning chances...but if you talk about talent and passion, it's whole different game.
It was my ex boyfriend Sakis that introduced me to Marc's music.
I enjoyed it rightaway.
WHEN I DREAM AT NIGHT and YOU SANG TO ME remember me of some great times i spent in greece, real nice ballads.
As most of the rest of the material contained on this album.
AM I THE ONLY ONE and LOVE IS ALL are poignant to say the least.
But Marc comes from Puerto Rico, where salsa music is still well and alive.. there he goes and you get I NEED TO KNOW...simply irresistable tune when you're on the floor.
Sony alligned such producers as Walter Afanasieff, Ric Wake, Dan Shea and Cory Rooney (big in the business after his successful partnership with J.Lo) and Rodney "Darkchild" Jenkins for his english debut.
Jenkins is actually the only one who fails in here, trying to mix salsa rhythms with hard electronic stuff...ultimate mess!
I'll say it from the heart...when you are in love there is nothing like a ballad to cement a bond between you and the one you love...
Marc will surely provide a wide choice in that matter...
