Aventura - Kings Of Bachata: Live From Madison Square Garden (CD)

All Music Guide

A year after K.O.B. Live (2006) was a commercial blockbuster, Aventura released another doubledisc live album, Kings of Bachata: Sold Out at Madison Square Garden, that likewise features them performing their bounty of hits while a stadium full of girls scream in the background. Documenting their soldout performance at Madison Square Garden in the group's hometown of New York City on September 1, 2007, the album finds Aventura joined onstage midshow by superstar guests including Don Omar (on "Ella y Yo"), Wisin ("Noche de Sexo"), and Héctor Acosta ("Me Voy"). Besides these guest appearances, plus the incidental fact that Kings of Bachata: Sold Out at Madison Square Garden documents a single show rather than a series of shows from a tour, there's little difference between this album and its predecessor. Fans can be assured that both Kings of Bachata: Sold Out at Madison Square Garden and K.O.B. Live feature more or less all of the group's biggest hits, including "Hermanita," "Angelito,"... "La Boda," "Los Infieles," "Un Beso," and "Mi Corazoncito" (with the exceptions of "Obsesión" and "Llorar," key songs that are oddly missing from the Madison Square Garden performance). - Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide Read more Less
