PIONEER THEATER 46
Avenue A in New York City --
"Bound to prick up the ears of anyone who's ever bought Froot Loops to its
arpeggiated chug-a-chug, bachata is the Dominican Republic's most popular musical
genre and the looming subject of Alex Wolfe's Santo Domingo Blues. Like the
Wenders Cuban movie to which it will inevitably and annoyingly be compared, SDB
excavates a salty lineup of pickers and crooners, most of whom kneel to (now
deceased) Eladio R. Santos, unsung hero of the brillo, or shiny guitar tone, who
in the movie joyfully plays a car wash-nightclub while still throwing a line to
the mamis. Chock-full of digressions and sidesteps, the affair is informally
hosted by bubbly bachatero star Luis Vargas, a/k/a 'the Supreme King of
Bitterness.'"
