Houston Rodeo Live [Bonus DVD] (2004)

Regrettably, live albums aren't nearly as plentiful as they should be in Latin pop. Latin radio stations usually prefer studio recordings, and record companies tend to give them what they want. Many Latin popsters, in fact, will go their entire careers without providing a live album. But Jennifer Peña isn't one of them; Houston Rodeo Live documents the Mexican-American singer's appearance at the Houston Reliant Stadium in Houston, TX on March 14, 2004 (when she was 20).

Regrettably, live albums aren't nearly as plentiful as they should be in Latin pop. Latin radio stations usually prefer studio recordings, and record companies tend to give them what they want. Many Latin popsters, in fact, will go their entire careers without providing a live album. But Jennifer Peña isn't one of them; Houston Rodeo Live documents the Mexican-American singer's appearance at the Houston Reliant Stadium in Houston, TX on March 14, 2004 (when she was 20). Some of Peña's hardcore fans may wish that the 46-minute CD was longer and wonder why their favorite album track from 1998's Mariposa, 2000's Abrázame y Bésame or 2004's Seducción wasn't included; nonetheless, Peña does perform many of her more essential songs, including "El Dolor de Tu Presencia," "Entre el Delirio y la Locura," "A Fuego Lento" and "Prefiero Irme Enamorada." Peña never sounds like she is merely going through the motions; she always sounds enthusiastic, and much of that enthusiasm no doubt stems from the fact that she has generally had worthwhile material to work with. Mining the same stylistic waters as Ana Bárbara and the late Selena (two frequent comparisons), Peña is a provider of Latin pop ear candy -- but it's generally been good, memorable Latin pop ear candy. Another reason for the high level of enthusiasm on Houston Rodeo Live is the location; Peña is a native of San Antonio, and performing in her home state obviously has sentimental value for the tejana . Houston Rodeo Live is unlikely to win over anyone who isn't already a confirmed Jennifer Peña fan; however, Peña's sizable following will find a lot to admire about this enjoyable CD -- even if they wish it were about 30 minutes longer. ~ Alex Henderson, Rovi Read Less
