RICKY MARTIN Red Hot and On The Rise

This biography tells of the musical and acting career of Ricky Martin,"sizzling Latin heartthrob." Karessa McElheny introduces the text. The part of Ricky Martin is read by Christian Noble, who exudes youthful enthusiasm. Surprisingly, no Spanish or Latin accent or phrasing is ascribed to Martin. McElheny is also enthusiastic in her reading and fluent about Martin's two decades of accomplishments. The audiobook contains no music to illustrate his popularity--a definite deficiency for the uninformed. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2000, Portland, Maine [Published: OCT/NOV 00]
