With only one solo studio album released since he left the group Aventura, it may seem a little early for bachata singer Romeo Santos to be releasing a live album, but you certainly wouldn't want to say that to the sold-out Madison Square Garden crowd captured here. Greeted with a Beatlemania-sized swell of screams, Santos launches into his number one hit "You" on the opening of this live effort, and it is followed by another chart-topper, "La Diabla." Massive hit number three, "Promise," closes the set, and in between there are enthusiastic performances of most of his 2011 album Formula, Vol. 1, along with a couple medleys that pull their material from his time in Aventura. It marks Santos' amazing success at selling out the Garden and offers a souvenir for fans, but those who haven't seen the singer on tour might want to seek out the DVD version of The King Stays King along with the audio. ~ David Jeffries, Rovi
