Marc Anthony brings his elegant passions to the Big Apple in this exciting 2001 concert performance. The dazzled audience erupts at the singer’s knockout, Spanish-language openers, “Y Hubo Alguien” and “Contra la Corriente,” swoons to his exultant “You Sang to Me,” and hangs on every marvelous syllable in the exquisitely phrased “When I Dream at Night.” Anthony’s material occasionally slides into bathos (“That’s Okay”), but at his best he can go from big band salsa (“Nadie Como Ella”) to Burt Bacharach-flavored pop-soul (“My Baby You”) to gorgeous, breathless ballads (“Da la Vuelta”) without breaking a sweat. But when he needs all engines firing at once, such as on his hot-hot-hot big hit, “I Need to Know,” the tension and power are delicious. Watching Anthony work a stadium crowd–gliding, dancing, playing to every corner–reminds one of Mick Jagger’s playbook. –Tom Keogh
