TEJANO MUSIC BY TEXMEXFM.COM

Archive for the ‘Selena CDs’ Category

Selena s vibrant stage show, stunning good looks and genuine, down-to-earth personality made her the darling of the Tejano music scene and, eventually, the entire world. Her senseless murder, at the age of 23, shocked both fans and non-fans alike in 1995; and the tragedy was compounded by the fact that The Mexican Madonna was poised to make the transition to the mainstream pop market when she died. This 3-CD collection celebrates the amazing career she was able to forge during such a limited amount of time, featuring an extraordinary tracklist that includes Dreaming of You, I Could Fall in Love, No Quiero Saber and Te Amo Solo a Ti. Forever Selena comes in a lovingly designed, embossed collector s edition tin and though it cannot bring the icon back, it certainly will ensure that she is never forgotten.

Tejano star Selena’s death hasn’t stopped label executives from releasing material or fans from snapping it up. According to the EMI Latin label, 1996’s Siempre Selena features the last of her previously unreleased songs, “Siempre Hace Frio.” The lavish, three-disc Anthology , however, is a must-have for its glimpses of Selena honing her vocal skills and sharpening her talent. Divided under the headers “Pop/English,” “Mariachi,” and “Cumbia,” the set showcases hard-to-find early material and hits, including a club remix of the Diane Warren-penned “I’m Getting Used to You” and a disco-flavored take on “La Bamba.” The liner notes offer background information on every song, and these discs also underscore the talents of Selena’s brother, A.B. Quintanilla III. He gives many of the older tracks (”Dame Tu Amo,” “Salta la Ranita”) fresh arrangements that match the energy of Selena’s more recent material. –Joey Guerra Atists:   Selena Audio CD:   Box set Company:  EMI Latin  (1998-04-07) List Price:  $31.98 Amazon Price:  $19.97 Used Price:  $8.47

Released in March 1994 exactly a year before Selena would be shot and killed by her ex-fan club president, this CD demonstrates a band at the peak of its creative force. The hits were obvious–the eloquent “Amor Prohibido,” on love conducted in secret, and “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom,” a magical pop tune that could work in any dance club. “Cobarde” and “El Chico” were easy cumbias to like; “Fotos y Recuerdos” was an ironic message on having only photographs and memories left. But highly underrated was the lovely and stoic “No Me Queda Mas,” on facing the end, yet keeping a sense of dignity and self-worth. –Ramiro Burr Atists:   Selena Audio CD:   Enhanced, Limited Edition, Original recording reissued, Original recording remastered Company:  EMI Latin  (2002-09-24) List Price:  $14.98 Amazon Price:  $9.81 Used Price:  $4.98

By now, Selena’s recordings are like familiar friends, dropping in once a year or so to show off a new outfit that feels familiar, only it’s prettied up in some new way. Ones offers 19 of the late Tejano diva’s biggest hits, including the bittersweet crossover ballads “I Could Fall in Love” and “Dreaming of You.” Every song sparkles with Selena’s irresistible personality and rich, full-throttle delivery, especially impressive considering she was in her late teens and early 20s when most of these songs were recorded. The new addition here is “Con Tanto Amor,” a three-song medley of “Amor Prohibido,” “Si Una Vez,” and “Como La Flor,” that achieves added poignancy as a ballad. Ones also comes packaged with a DVD featuring Selena’s complete video collection, from the shoestring-budget “La Carcacha” to the elegant “No Me Queda Mas.” –Joey Guerra Atists:   Selena Audio CD:   Limited Edition, Original recording remastered Company:  EMI Latin  (2002-10-01) List Price:  $20.98 Amazon Price:  $14.99 Used Price:  $10.93

This third compilation of Selena’s material is hyped by EMI officials as being a complete collection of her biggest hits. It is no exaggeration. All 16 tracks are hits, and the disc includes her biggest numbers, such as “Amor Prohibido,” “Como la Flor,” and “Bidi Bidi Bom Bom.” The CD features her English-language hits as well: “I Could Fall in Love,” “Dreaming of You,” and “Missing My Baby.” There’s also “Disco Medley Pt. II (Last Dance/The Hustle/On the Radio),” recorded live at the Houston Rodeo. Selena and the band sound sharp and on the money. “On the Radio” impacts in particular, through its lyrics about love conducted in secret–a situation that applied to Selena and her guitarist Chris Perez before they were married in 1992. –Ramiro Burr Atists:   Selena Audio CD:   Limited Edition Company:  EMI Latin  (1999-03-09) List Price:  $17.98 Amazon Price:  $19.64 Used Price:  $9.00

Released three months after her murder in 1995, Dreaming of You introduced the Tejano queen to the mainstream pop audience. Four new tunes recorded with producers Keith Thomas and Guy Roche envisioned Selena as a dance-pop diva similar to Janet Jackson or Mariah Carey, but with a Latin twist. Far more arresting are the two classic mariachi numbers and a bilingual duet with David Byrne recorded for the movie Don Juan DeMarco, in which Selena had a bit part. The contrast between her passionate invitation to “come dance with me” and Byrne’s nerdy white-guy delivery indicated her wide-open creative potential. The rest of the album consists of remixes of Selena’s Latin-pop hits, including a masterful version of “Techno Cumbia” that bring out the hip-hop and reggae flavors in the groove. The tragedy was that such a promising introduction also served as a sad farewell. –Rick Mitchell Atists:   Selena Audio CD:   Enhanced Company:  EMI Latin  (1995) (1995-07-18) List Price:  $16.98 Amazon Price:  $7.99 Used Price:  $0.99
