Stay with Latin music, Ricky

(Sony BMG Norte)

Let's hope Ricky Martin's last English-language CD, 2005's artistic and commercial flop Life, was his final attempt at another mainstream frenzy a la "Livin' La Vida Loca." And that's said with complimentary thoughts for the Puerto Rican singer-entertainer. The guy belongs in Latin music. His most recent all-Spanish studio disc, 2003's Almas Del Silencio, proved he could tackle deep material, most notably Ricardo Arjona's exquisite ballad "Asignatura Pendiente." He does that song on 2006's MTV Unplugged, another worthy effort that leaves no doubt Ricky should sing in his native tongue. Look for my interview story with Mr. Martin Oct. 5 in Guide. He performs Oct. 6 at Nokia Theatre in Grand Prairie.
