Sonrisa Salvaje (Original Recording Remastered)

Eat `Em and Smile was a huge success for Roth in 1986, yielding a chart topping rock album, as well as ranking up several Top 40 singles with Goin' Crazy and Yankee Rose.

As this album rode the charts, David also released a very rare version of the album sung in Spanish aptly titled Sonrisa Salvaje. This was a quite a leap at the time, but this man can do no wrong. Armed with an incredible batch of tunes and his super power trio of Steve Vai (guitars), Billy Sheehan (bass) and Gregg Bissonette (drums), Sonrisa Salvaje went on to become one of this artists most collectable and enduring works, but the general public couldn't buy it for over two decades....that is until now.

Right in time to relish in the warm weather and your outdoor party festivities for the spring and summer, Sonrisa Salvaje is back once again in its full glory. Rescued from the vaults, this massive metal masterpiece has been tastfully remastered by Joe Reagoso, original artwork included, as well as including the ten incredible performances that most of his fans know by heart, but this time with an added Spanish twist.

Familiar staples like Yankee Rose and Loco Del Calor ( Goin' Crazy) just jump out at you this time around. Steve Vai and the band just shine on every track, and David's vocals are second to none. Check out the rhythm track on Noche De Ronda En La Ciudad ( Ladies Night In Buffalo) as well as the driving beat on La Calle Del Tabaco ( Tobacco Road) This is some truly amazing work.

The Friday Music is offering this hard-to-find album to the David Lee Roth army of fans, and you should note that this is just the first installment of several other Warner Brothers era Roth work now being remastered and made available again after years of being out of print. This is great news....Rock on!
