I even audition for this movie and i guess i didnt make it becuase they havent call me but it was a pleasure meeting Tito Allen and other artist. They ask me what do i want to sing from the audition and i said Frankie Ruiz "Desnudate Mujer" becuase it didnt matter, it didnt have to be from Hector Lavoe so i sang the song. I do admire the greatest Hector Lavoe, I even went to his wake and gave my respect. Well as for now I try to make into the music world because I do love to sing and I do songs from Marc Anthony, El Gran Combo, Frankie Ruiz, Tommy Olivencia, Domenic M, Eddie Santiago, Jery Rivera, Cheo Feliciano, Johnny Rivera, Victor Manuelle, Quayacan, Luis Damon, DLG, Leann Rimes "How Do I Live Without You" etc... I forgot the one and only my causin ELVIS CRESPO new CD coming up this June 2006... I want to go to the music world on my own, and hope and pray someone out there will discover my talent. Thank You and GOD Bless.....PEACE I wish the best for both of them.

It has been a great part of me for most of my life, it has meant different things in many different situations of my life. I can always listen to any of his many masterpieces and feel something that I have never felt with anything before! I have been waiting for this movie for a very long time, I always told myself, even before I found out Marc anthony was playing Hector, that Marc Anthony would play the perfect role. If you can please let me know when the movie will come out and where. Thank you. Much love to Hector Lavoe & much love to Elizabeth N.J.

He was always true to himself and to his country. And, probably because of his short comings and the tragedies that befell him, we loved him all the more. Kudos to Jennifer Lopez and her husband Marc Anthony who have dared to bring the story of the Cantante de los Cantantes to the screen. We need more artists like these brave actors who can bring stories like this to the public. I love this couple and I am so proud of all their accomplishments and I truly pray that Hector's story will reach many people who did not have the pleasure of knowing or hearing this man when he was alive. We owe it to the generation that is now coming up. I know both Jennifer and Marc are up to the task and I can't wait for the movie to be out. Que Dios los Bendiga and Que Viva Puerto Rico y El Cantante de Los Cantantes. No matter what some people may say, Hector Lavoe is one of the greatest gifts God has given to Latin music.

The smart way to go is making sure to focus on that generation that shared the glory of our music with Lavoe. You need to incorporate as much of a setting form that time as possible, kind of like a documentary. What ever you do don't disrespect his legacy putting focus on the negative!!!! Remember that his music set the tone for many salseros who have come after. The man was truely ahead of his time!!!!

He had the ability to ad-lib during performances. Many (perhaps all) salsa numbers at some point during the song break into a climactic and hynotic loop where it's an open free for all and band members can take turns jumping in and improvise with a solo be it with their horns, piano, and percussive instruments. Hector did this lyrically, ad-libbing with clever and original lyrics, and precise execution. Marc Anthony has a really powerful voice, however in order to pull this off, he'll have to do more than sing, he'll have to impersonate Hector which will be difficult because Lavoe had alot more range (Marc is more of an alto). In order for this flick to become a work of art, they need to focus on three things: - Marc's look, they have to do a really good job of making Marc look and act like Hector. - Good lip sync and Marc's part and re-working of Hector's songs. I'm afraid that if they actually use Marc's voice, it's going to sound like another Domingo Quiñones. They need to lip sync. If they remaster the original songs, and make it a little more basey and add a little more power to the original tracks, it'll sound awesome in the movie theater. - Production needs to do research not just on Lavoe, but on salsa and how it exploded into NYC. As part of their research, they should consider interviewing the people who knew Hector best on stage, all of the members of the Fania All-Stars. If they focus on these 3 key areas, and if J-LO puts on a powerful performance, I can see this at least being nominated for an academy award. Don't mess this up guys, a movie about Hector has been long overdue, and this is the one and only chance to show the world what Hector gave to the world of Salsa. Take your time and plan it carefully. The end result may very well be a work of art that is as equally infinite as the legend. -m FYI,
