Description:
After leaving Spanish-Argentinian band Los Rodríguez, beginning a succesful solo career with albums Alta Suciedad and Honestidad Brutal and then feeling the ravages of rock & roll stereotypes (sex and drugs) while releasing free demos and rarities through his web and the only-for-big-fans's El Salmón, Andrés Calamaro seemed to rise musically from the ashes in part thanks to the contact with a flamenco-jazz fussion wave that was talking place in Madrid back in 2002, releasing El Cantante and El Regreso (The Return) which name suggested more than a title for an album. Calamaro seemed to realize that if he, in some way, was going to be remembered in Spanish/Argentinan music history, it would be thanks to his voice more than to his compositions (some has compared him to tango singer Roberto Goyeneche) focusing his career, therefore, as a cantor (singer), as he calls himself. Tinta Roja is the second studio album in collaboration with a Madrid flamenco-jazz group of musicians (the great nuyorican trumpetist Jerry González, flamenco guitar player "Niño" Josele and bassist Alain Pérez among others) and the 2004 grammy's best latin producer Javier Limón, responsible of producing masterpieces like Bebo and Ciagala‘s Lágrimas Negras or Paco de Lucía's Cositas Buenas. The album consists of classic Latin-American tangos & boleros, but far from being just another versions compilation, it offers a special sound texture with an unsual blend of tango and emotive percutions, Spanish guitars and trumpets borrowed from flamenco and Latin jazz. Listeners can enjoy from the first to the last song two of the Latin most intense musics and with deepest emotional roots, the Argentinian tango and Spanish flamenco. ~ Alfonso Goiriz, AMG
