[edit] Info

On this concert Shakira had Alejandro Sanz as a guest and they performed together their 2005 smash hit La Tortura. Wyclef Jean was also a guest and performed the 2006 world wide hit Hips Don't Lie with Shakira.

Shakira shows off her abilities as a musician playing the guitar during "Don't Bother" and "Inevitable", as well as the harmonica during "Te Dejo Madrid".

The wardrobe Shakira wore on the concert was designed by Shakira and the prestigious designer Roberto Cavalli. The stage was designed by Shakira and Spanish visual artist Jaume de Laiguana.

The concert is available in 2 formats: DVD and Blu-Ray, making Shakira one of the pioneers of the Blu-Ray technology. The Blu-Ray edition was released December 12th, 2007. The audio was recorded and mixed in stereo and 5.1 by Gustavo Celis.

The live album quicky shot up the Mexican charts, peaking at number 1 for two non-consecutive weeks, and remained in the top 10 for over 11 weeks.

Contrary to "Live & Off the Record", which was successful in Australia, certifying Gold, this release has not been promoted and has yet to chart there.

[edit] Marketing

This DVD was marketed in a very unusual way. Instead of launching one or two singles to the radio or TV, they released almost all of the videos online to different top-visited websites, such as MySpace, People en español, MTV, Yahoo, and MSN, with usually one or two videos on each website.
