Sin Bandera

These 2 have such amazing voices and their harmonies and beautiful. They sound like they were meant to sing together and each song is sung with such feeling. I highly recommend Sin Banderas to anyone that loves to hear great music, great voices, great harmonies....etc.

Hasta Ahora

Love this group (Sin Bandera). I'm so sorry they've broken up since making this album. The album is great listening. I gave it to a student who is studying Spanish because of the clarity of the singing. I did listen to it first before giving it away.

Take the Lead
$12.98
You really can't go wrong with a dance movie. Even a bad one will make you feel good. And Take the Lead makes you feel good in spite of its numerous flaws.

The film was inspired by the real life story of Pierre Dulaine, a man who introduced a ballroom dancing program to inner city schools with the idea of teaching "at risk" students discipline, cooperation, and self-respect. It's a nice idea...but why did he do it? This movie really does not give you a clue. As a consequence, the whole process of convincing the students (and Alfre Woodard) that ballroom dancing was the key to bettering the lives of inner city kids was long, tedious and not quite believable. (You have to be pretty dedicated to attempt reaching any kind of teen, let alone teens that deal drugs, have prostitutes for mothers and shoot one another on weekends.) As with all movies "inspired" by real events, cliches, irrelevant side plots, and set-ups abounded. By the time "Monster" (his name says it all) shows up in a tux at an uptown, all-white cotillion, you may be ready to chuck this film.

But you won't for the following reason: Antonio Banderas is the sexiest man alive. (Forget George Clooney.) After you have seen him dance the tango, you will never be the same. (When it comes to Banderas, "sizzling" is not a metaphor.) If the director had spent another hour or so featuring Banderas and the professional dancers in his studio, not only would it have been a five-star film (hang the plot!), it would have needed a different rating. (PG-35?)

I think I'm going to watch that tango scene again...

I ordered this product for a Christmas present. It was at a very reasonable price, and was shipped right away. I was really surprised on how fast the product arrived. I would order this again.
