Todos Somos MAS
Album · Pop in Spanish · 2018
It's a rare feat when a singer receives a loving tribute album while he's still actively recording. Many of these new cover versions take an understandably reverent approach to the deeply romantic and justifiably iconic catalogue of Mexican crooner Marco Antonio Solís, especially the smouldering-but-straightforward Juanes rendition of the already steamy cumbia "Más Que Tu Amigo". But the collection's strongest moments come when these Solís fans take eclectic liberties with his classics. Mon Laferte flips the operatic "Invéntame" into an intimate '60s pop ballad, while Los Tres and El David Aguilar rewrite the stately banda of "El Celoso" as a jaunty norteño anthem.
