POLEN MONICA GIRALDO/Que Venga La Vida: Well, here's something from Medellin you can get hooked on without dire consequences. A Columbian singer/songwriter that racked up some frequent flyer miles before coming home to Columbia, her tongue and words might remain native but her sound is world wide. While the lyric sheet doesn't provide any translations, her voice and vibe is another of those touchstones that underscore how music is the universal language. The playing and arrangements cross all bridges and this is one dandy set that really goes the distance. A smoking little date that seems to provide enough of the right kind of heat to set the Latin Grammys on fire. Well done.
