Blanco Facil
Chetes
Released:
Aug 2006
Label:
LATIN
It's hard not to feel that this is the solo album Ruben Albarran (of Cafe Tacuba) should have released this year. But Albarran delights in subverting expectations, while Chetes, just a few years out of Mexican alt-rock outfit Zurdok, is simply reveling in his freedom, giving free rein to his cool bossa nova-influenced crooning and a songwriting style that gives Lennon-McCartney an indie makeover. Blanco Facil is that rare beast: an album you can listen to from start to finish. "Camino A Casa" and "El Sonido De Tu Voz," a tender nod to mariachi, stand out as particularly lovely.
