A Corazon Abierto [Enhanced] [Limited Edition]

Amazon.com
Ranchera heartthrob Alejandro Fernandez polishes up his sound on A Corazon Abierto, his first pop album since 2000's Entre Tus Brazos. That effort was marred by Emilio Estefan's bland production and repetitive instrumentation, but Fernandez diversifies on Corazon, enlisting the help of Aureo Baqueiro (Sin Bandera, Aleks Syntek) and Kike Santander, producer of choice for a dazzling roster of artists, including Thalia, Gloria Estefan, Jennifer Lopez, and David Bisbal. They wrap Fernandez's swoon-inducing voice in lush instrumentation, veering from somber ballads ("Para Vivir," "Me Dedique a Perderte") to galloping uptempo tracks ("Se Va," "Canta Corazon"). Fernandez's mariachi sensibilities have often been muzzled during his pop-flavored outings, but the flamenco-guitar flourishes and blaring horns actually seem to play up his trademark sound and style. It makes for a confident collection that cleverly straddles both genres and makes the most of Fernandez's sexy--and often thrilling--voice. --Joey Guerra

Alejandro.......2007-03-09

I love this album - Alejandro Fernandez is so good. I'm waiting for his next album!

AMAZING.......2006-11-10

I love the way Alejandro Fernandez sang, because he feel what he said.Its a great performance

Solid Work.......2006-08-17

I guess everyone has their own opinion of this album. Personally, I enjoyed it very much. I've been a fan of Alejandro's music for about 14 years, and It's been amazing to see the evolution. From a youngster attempting to imitate his father's voice (which, if you know Chente's music, it cannot be done)to a completely independant and mature artist.

I tend to disagree with those who say that Entre Tus Brazos is his best pop album. Personally, I believe that is his weakest album. I am one of those fans who prefers to hear him sing those rancheras, but I also realize that part of the evolution and growth of a performer is the constant reinventing and the willingness to explore new areas. I know that he became famous singing such hits as "Se Me Van Las Ganas" "Piel de Nina", and "Como Quien Pierde Una Estrella", but I also know that he has consolidated himself as a true superstar with his latter works.

This particular album starts out strong but dies off just a bit, and just when you think you're going to turn it off, he comes at you with another good song. My personal favorites are "Canta Corazon" "Me Dedique a Perderte" "Que Voy a Hacer Con Mi Amor" "Que Lastima" and "Se Va". 6 out of 13 isn't bad, and those are just the ones I like most. It's definitely worth buying.

Balancing Tradition and Emotion!.......2006-04-24

I do not comprehend the words, yet this superb artist has the ability to transfer his emotions past the barriers of language. The AF phenomenon can only go from strength to strength! I am looking forward to my next Latin music purchase!

Nice balance between the Alejandro's ranchera and pop voices.......2005-12-29

While his pop debut "Me Estoy Enamorando" may have been too pop for fans of traditional ranchera music and the ranchera albums that established him as a force in Mexican music did not suit the tastes of mainstream pop audiences, "A Corazon Abierto" strikes the proper balance between the two.

On this album, florid ranchera instrumentation combined with Fernandez's rich, buttery vocals and pop melodies result in a production everyone will enjoy. At the same time, the album leaves listeners nostalgic for their Alejandro Ferdandez---whether that is the sultry pop version or the charro suit, mariachi version.

Pay special attention to "Canta Corazon", an irreverent but infectious love song. High points of the album also include "Que Voy a Hacer Con Mi Amor" and "Me Dedique A Perderte".

A solid and artistically substantial album........2003-07-30

Hector was one of the 1990's best salsa romantica singers and this was among his best efforts. Although all songs are in the salsa romantica/erotica vein, Hector sings with true emotion and feeling (this sets him apart from most of his contemporaries) and can also improvise well. Check out the title track, "Triste Dia", "Tu Regreso", "Yo Puedo, Tu Puedes" and "Asi Comenzo Nuestro Amor" for confirmation.
