Customer Reviews of Solo Para Ti

A wonderful blend of musical styles and talent!
I have long heard of Ottmar Liebert, but to be honest, have never actually heard his music. Then, by chance, I bought this CD. I'm hooked! It's a wonderful collection of music, blending traditional and modern Spanish guitar with light jazz and sensuous flamenco. The music is sometimes mellow, sometimes lively, but always a pleasure to hear. As an added bonus, Liebert is joined on this album by another great guitarist, Carlos Santana -- Samba Pa Ti was written by Carlos and he plays prominently on that. Together, these two great musicians, along with the band, put out some fantastic music. All but one of the songs are instrumental (except for vocal harmonies on Lilac Sun). The one vocal song (with lyrics) is Deep In Your Heart. I'm afraid to say that this was the only disappointing song on the album. It doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the album, and I don't care for the singing. Otherwise, the album is a gem of great music. I'm planning to buy other Ottmar Liebert albums, now that I know how good he is.

Meditative and Seductive
Ottmar Liebert plays a very good guitar and he wants to share his expertise with a global audience. His music is truly beautiful and very relaxing. When listening to this CD you can partake in just about any activity. If you like to read or have creative endevors this is perfect music that stimulates but does not demand your complete attention. The songs for the most part are very mellow. Lush and lyrical the arraignments are a sophisticated blend of pop flamenco that works. There is an intersting version of the "Marvin Gaye's" classic "Mercy, Mercy, Me". The difference here is that it is sung in Spanish in a flamenco style that would make the deceased Motown artist proud. Lots of good tunes here, with a variety of tempos to keep your interest. One of Lieberts better efforts that he has released over the years, this CD has withstood the test of time. Released in 1992, the fine instrumentation keeps it alive. A highlight from this CD is the duet with Carlos Santana which I never get tired of. The song is 'Samba Pa Ti", originally penned and made famous by Santana. The different arraignment makes it hardly recognizeable as Liebert has taken creative freedom to make something new. The music is enchanting and bordering on mystical inspiration. An excellent addition to any complete collection of nuevo flamenco.
