Review

Imagine being transported to a warm Miami night on October 9, 2001, where Alejandro Sanz is about to make history as the first Spanish artist to grace the MTV Unplugged stage. Recorded at the Gusman Center, "MTV Unplugged" captures Sanz's extraordinary talent in a raw, acoustic format that celebrates his rich Latin pop roots. With Humberto Gatica at the helm as producer, the 13 tracks take on a life of their own, seamlessly blending acoustic charm with Sanz's signature style.

The album kicks off with the stirring "Cuando Nadie Me Ve," immediately setting the mood for an intimate journey. As Sanz pours his soul into "Y Sólo Se Me Ocurre Amarte," a touching tribute to his daughter Manuela, the emotional depth is palpable. Other highlights include "Aprendiz," which was originally written for Malú, and the flamenco-tinged "Todo Es De Color" by Manuel Molina. The album's journey wasn't just a musical triumph; it soared to the top of the Billboard Latin Pop Albums and Top Latin Albums charts, and clinched the Latin Grammy Award for Album of the Year in 2002.

"MTV Unplugged" isn't just an album; it's a showcase of Alejandro Sanz's enchanting live presence and the meticulous production that brings out his best. This collection stands as a testament to Sanz's artistry, creating a live experience that's both mesmerizing and unforgettable. - Raine
