4 out of 5 stars Hard to believe it's his first effort........2005-08-28

I happened to hear Franky Perez live and got this CD. Initially there was a bit of disappointment - his live show is so energetic and emotional the studio versions seemed like a bit of a letdown. On repeated listenings though, I realized that these songs are just as powerful but in a different way.

This is a mix of straight-ahead rock and roll with some ballads and a latin flavor thrown in. I notice Lava Records describes this as "diverse". I am not big on diversity for it's own sake but here it works well. It's hard to categorize his music since Franky throws in so many styles, almost all of which he does well.

I gave it only four stars mainly because at times Perez relies a little too much on a breathy voice that may get a bit old after a while. Overall, though, a very enjoyable set of tunes. I don't usually think of music in terms of value, but there is a lot of value here - so many songs on one CD, all well done.

5 out of 5 stars FRANKY PEREZ IS JUST GETTING STARTED.......2005-06-15

For those of us who work, there is little time left in the day to listen to music. I'd love nothing more than to sit home and write reviews.

This album rocks!!! You can't go wrong. Lots of tracks, creative and refreshing. Nothing fake. This is not a fake review.

5 out of 5 stars great 19 track album, .......2005-05-08

Franky Perez is the best. He has great songs, excellent lyrycs and an incredible voice. From start to finish, I can listen to this album and then want to listen to it again. Out of the 19 songs I can say 2 are average to me. He released his 2nd album called 'My 4th of July' probably a week ago, I got mine today. Another classic! This guy is so talented. (...)

5 out of 5 stars Great alternative to what's "popular".......2004-12-05

Poetic lyrics, smooth sound, music anyone can feel good to.
"Something Crazy" is my favorite trach, but really they are all good. Just listen to this artist one time and you'll be hooked.

1 out of 5 stars Not 5 Stars by any means... Franky is not even `A` Star!.......2004-10-12

This CD is boring, cliche, all done before garbage. If you really must, buy a used copy or save your money all together. Do not believe the fake reviews posted on the guy!
