Amazon.com
As one of the driving forces in the French-Spanish ethno-punk band Mano Negra, songwriter-guitarist Chao delivers a surprising solo endeavor. Centered around a simple editorial writing style and an acoustic guitar, this album chronicles his political and personal travels around the world, studying the foibles of life in Latin America and the Caribbean, through Africa and back to Europe. He quotes but never actually plays salsa, son, reggae, Latin pop, and African folk music, all to the service of his songs (written and sung in English, French, and Spanish). The backing is a deceptive hodgepodge of guest artists and collected sounds he has pasted together to service the simple songs he sings. There is a circuslike feel to the whole project, a childlike sense of wonder coupled with a cynical and sometimes sly glance at the "real world." This is a single piece of work, each song bleeding into the next without stopping, a train ride that slows at each station along the way but never stops. It has charm, wit, and depth--a rare and potent combination of virtues for a pop musician. --Louis Gibson

 Easy listening May 1, 2008
If you wanna relax after work with some cold drink or hot for that matter. Just put on this record and close your eyes.....
Manu Chao February 23, 2008
Very fun to listen to. The deeper that I researched Manu Chao, the more fun the experience. His musical partners (amparanoia) and his background led me to know many other artists and musical styles. Thanks to my friend Patty who intoduced my to Manu Chao.....

I love this CD! I know I will be repeating a few things others have said, but here goes.
Now I Know Why I Studied So Many Languages January 6, 2008
This work is a delight for the mind. Themes, concepts, genres, and ideas are spread across its tracks, which overlap and complement each other, constructing a whole which far exceeds the sum of its parts. If a masterpiece upon canvas says a thousand words, then Clandestino is the audio manifestation of such a masterpiece. Blended together are the sufferings and joys of humanity, expressed in multiple languages and held together by a unique poetry of musical fabric. I cannot get enough of this album.
