Besame Mucho (EP) (2019)

"The first track and EP title, Besame Mucho, translates to “Kiss me a lot” and is an old classic Mexican bolero (think Spanish ballroom music). Followed by “Sola Soy,” or “I am alone” is an original song by Vasquez. Track three, Lo que pasó, pasó, translates to “What’s Past, Is Past”. Next, Te he visto pasar, or “I’ve Seen You Passing By” is the third original piece. And finally, another old classic Quizás, quizás, quizás rounds out the selection. In short, the album is greater than the sum of its parts. Vasquez’s delivery is vibrant, fearless, and soulful, in league with titans like Aretha Franklin and Nina Simone. Besame Mucho is as much a delight on the 100th listen as it is on the second and third. It’s easy listening fit for background noise at work or a candle lit dinner for an anniversary without being pretentious. A worthwhile concession for a knockout listening experience."
