Con Banda Grandes Exitos

Amazon.com It's bizarre at first to hear Mexican diva Thalia's biggest pop hits adorned with blaring horns and oompah beats, but she ultimately pulls it off on Banda Thalia Grandes Exitos. Thalia has enlisted a solid lineup of musicians and producers for the project, but this is hardly banda music in its purest form. Cumbia and pop rhythms regularly find their way into many of the tracks. The slick collection revisits--and reimagines--Thalia's most successful singles since joining EMI Latin in 1995, making for an uneven but interesting project. Tracks such as the already festive "Amor a la Mexicana" and "Por Amor" work well within the traditional banda setting, while ballads "Quiero Hacerte el Amor" and "Entre el Mar y una Estrella" drag a bit and are best showcased in their original arrangements. "Arrasando," the title track off Thalia's stellar 2000 album, is sapped of its energy, but the inclusion of traditional gems "Cuco Pena" and "La Revancha" is a genuine treat. Through it all, Thalia remains an authoritative--and irresistible--presence. --Joey Guerra Product description Thalia Con Banda – Grandes Éxitos / EMI Audio CD 2001 UPC 724353472221 /// Thalía con banda: Grandes éxitos is a 2001 compilation album by Thalía. The album was released in August 2001 while successful singles off her Arrasando album were still receiving heavy airplay, like "Arrasando", "Reencarnacion" and "It's My Party." The album includes ten of Thalía's greatest hits remade in banda style, plus two new banda tracks "La Revancha" and "Cuco Peña" and two bonus remixes of "Piel Morena" and "Amor a la mexicana." The only video filmed from this album was for the mix of "Amor a la mexicana" but the single did not have great success. Thalía con banda: Grandes éxitos received several music certifications, including a Gold award in Spain, becoming the first banda album in doing so. /// Label: EMI – 724353472221 Format: CD, Album Country: Mexico Released: 2001 Genre: Latin, Pop // Tracklist: 1 Amor A La Mexicana Written-By – Mario Pupparo 3:58 2 Piel Morena Written-By – Kike Santander 4:37 3 Rosalinda Written-By – Kike Santander 3:53 4 Quiero Hacerte El Amor Written-By – Daniel Garcia, Mario Schajris 3:47 5 Arrasando Written-By – Emilio Estefan Jr., Lawrence Dermer, Robin Dermer, Thalia 3:58 6 Cuco Peña Written-By – Thalia 3:49 7 Por Amor Written-By – Kike Santander 3:54 8 Entre El Mar Y Una Estrella Written-By – Marco Flores 3:29 9 Maria La Del Barrio Written-By – Paco Navarrette, Viviana Pimstein 3:55 10 Noches Sin Luna Written-By – Jose Miguel Velasquez, Kike Santander 3:48 11 La Revancha Written-By – Thalia 4:01 12 Gracias A Dios Written-By – Juan Gabriel 3:45 13 Amor A La Mexicana (Emilio Mix) Written-By – Mario Pupparo 4:01 14 Piel Morena (Emilio Mix) Written-By – Kike Santander 4:40 Arranged By [Additional] – Emilio Estefan, Jr. (tracks: 13) Arranged By [Additional], Programmed By, Percussion – Archie Peña (tracks: 14) Bass – Julio Hernandez (tracks: 13), Sal Cuevas (tracks: 14) Clarinet, Arranged By – Adolfo Valenzuela, Omar Valenzuela Co-producer – Pancho Ruiz Coro – Archie Peña (tracks: 14), Antonio Peregrino, Lena Pérez (tracks: 14), Pancho Ruiz Coro [Coros Adicionales] – Adriana Peregrino, Jaime Flores, Magda Flores Design – Raul Rodrigo Drums – Beto Domínguez Engineer [Ingeniero de Grabación] – Alfred Figueroa (tracks: 13, 14), Scott Canto (tracks: 14) Engineer [Ingeniero de Programación] – Lenin Garcia (2) (tracks: 13) Guitar – Leo Quintero (tracks: 14) Guitar, Percussion, Drum Programming – Archie Peña (tracks: 13) Percussion – Adolfo Valenzuela, Beto Domínguez, Lázaro Ofarril, Omar Valenzuela Performer [Armonías] – Ismael Osuna Camargo Photography By – Omar Cruz (2) Producer – Emilio Estefan, Jr. (tracks: 13,14), Guillermo Gil Producer [Productores Asociados] – Adolfo Valenzuela, Omar Valenzuela Recorded By [Asistente de Grabación] – Juan Barbosa, Michael McCoy Recorded By [Vocals, Percussion, Drums], Mixed By – Guillermo Gil Snare [Tarolas] – Luis Ricardo Arce Trombone – José Pilar López, Oscar Sotelo Trumpet – Oscar Sotelo Tuba – Alfredo Herrejon Vocals [Segundas Voces] – Sheila Ríos
