Necesito Un Bolero

Every now and then, Puerto Rico's salsa-music legend Gilberto Santa Rosa delves into the romantic, acoustic-framed style known as bolero and dazzles US with his talent. His 2015 release titled NECESITO UN BOLERO (I NEED A BOLERO), is his first bolero album in over 10 years and features all-star duets. Befitting a once-in-a-decade event, he's selected his songs with the utmost care and collaborated with a who's-who of music. Standout track 'Por Como Van Las Cosas' (Because of How Things Go) is a duet with the great Mexican singer/songwriter Marco Antonio Solis, delivering all the wisdom and expression that these two icons can bring. Gilberto Santa Rosa also sings with such critically acclaimed talents as Natalia Lafourcade, Lena, and Eugenia Leon. There are times when we all need a bolero, and with NECESITO UN BOLERO, Gilberto Santa Rosa makes sure the perfect song is there for whatever mood we're in. This lilting tropical rhythm burst out of Cuba over 100 years ago and has become the lingua franca of Latin-music romance.
