It's been three years since Laundry Service transformed Shakira into an international rock diva, and we're still waiting for the official follow-up. As she toils away on her next studio album (due later this year), the Colombian temptress has kept fans distracted with a Washed and Dried special edition of her English-language breakthrough and a Grandes Exitos collection of her Spanish hits. Now comes Live & Off the Record, a lush CD/DVD package chronicling Shakira's 2003 Tour of the Mongoose. It's a must-have for Shakira fans and features her second live CD effort (following 2000's stellar MTV Unplugged). The real treat, though, is the DVD, which was filmed at a tour stop in the Netherlands. Shakira tears through tracks such as "Si Te Vas," "Inevitable," "Rules," and "Ready For the Good Times" with equal parts sensuality and animalistic ferocity. Her stage presence is positively electric. The accompanying documentary is also a revelation, capturing Shakira at her most honest and vulnerable. Highlights include the singer's bout with tendonitis (brought on by belly-dancing), an early-morning mariachi serenade from her boyfriend on Valentine's Day, and a backstage visit from novelist Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Fans' appetites should be whetted--for a little while. --Joey Guerra

Customer Reviews

Singing needs Coaching!
Beautiful woman, OK belly dancer, nice blonde hair, but her singing is just awful in "Live Off The Record." Even when she speaks to the audience it's really bad. She's great marketing hype, but honestly, her singing has really declined rapidly. I like her band which makes up for her weak singing. Check our her first two albums when Shakira was more serious and relied less on dying her hair, less belly dancing, and more writing substance. No wonder sellers are selling this CD+DVD album under $3.

Live
This is an older CD. My son wanted it, and he loves it all becasue of Hips Don't Lie! So if you are die hard fan, this is a must!

Great
I've missed her concert in Rotterdam and after watching the DVD I even regret more!
The CD is only a selection of the concert, but great! I have listened it for many times and still it's cheering me up!
