Lu's "Album" was Worth the Wait

"It's not a wonder that the duo known as "Lu" was nominated for so many awards with their first album. They are talented songwriters and great performers.



And now, Lu's sophmore work exceeds expectations. "Album" is more mature and even more heartfelt than their debut offering.



Paty Cantu and Mario Sandoval's music is rich and their lyrics are straight from the heart. Lu's harmonies and style are truly unmatched in today's Latin pop scene. They are among the most talented writer-musicians singing in Spanish today.



The 2 solos by each of the members of this excellent duo are a rare and special treat in this "Album".



The first single, "La Vida Despues de Ti" and the song "Sin un Adios", both written by Paty, are true stand outs. These two songs seem to tell parts of the same story in a very personal way.



Paty and Mario are each accomplished composers and have written songs recorded by other artists, such as Alejandra Guzman. But they have saved some if the best for themselves.



This is a must for any Latin music lover. "La Vida Despues de Ti" will grow on you in a way that only a classic love song can.



Enjoy!

"UN MUY BUEN CD AUNQUE MAS CALMADO QUE SU CD DEBUT PERO VALE LAPENA"

Lu's second Album

"Lu's second album does much more than just live up to expectations, it surpasses them completley. Lu has been threw a lot in the past year with their break up and they both grew up more, and it completley shows here. Their first single "La Vida Despues De Ti" (Life after you) is such a beautiful ballad, and I am glad it has had such success in the Spanish music scene.

I think "Album" is a perfect name for this CD because I think this is what an album should be. If everybody had the heart, talent, writing skills, and passion for music as Lu does, then the Spanish music would be known for so much more than just reggeaton.

It's hard to compare the two members of Lu, because they both bring something different to the band, and together their chemistry is incredible. My personal favorite song on the Album is "Maria" a beautifel ballad by Mario about a girl named Maria. wow, is all I can say to that song. The other songs on the album are also great. There is not one bad songs on this album, although I like their slow songs better than their up-beat ones.

I think that Lu is a group that will be around for a long time, and I think that any fan of Spanish music should buy this album. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!"
