This is the only album I have ever bought from this singer. The whole album, was put together in a way where you liked to play all the music because the songs were all done exceptionally well. I had lost my original CD, and had to order another.
August 11, 2008Julio Iglesias has this unique and amazing ability to make all his songs sound so smooth and calm, yet so energetic and active. Need examples? Try tracks 3 and 4 (Baila Morena, Derroche). Me gusta mucho la musica de Julio Iglesias!
January 1, 2006Well, to me this is one of Julio's best cd's. I own it in Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese. Baila Morena has a great cumbia beat, and it is great to dance to. The rhythm runs through your body making you want to explode if you don't get up and dance.
April 13, 2004I've herd of Julio's music (in spanish & english) and I have to say that this is one of his best recordings. This CD wakes me up in the morning. If you have never bought a Julio Iglesias CD and you are trying to decide, don't hesitate on this one, GET IT!

From 1995, this is a really gorgeous CD, a velvety musical treat from start to finish. 5 of the 10 songs are written by the team of Roberto Levi and Rafael Ferro, and are beautiful, romantic baladas, with "Baila Morena" a lovely melody with a Carribean taste to it. Other good rythmic tracks are "Derroche", by Manuel Giménez, and my favorite, "Agua Dulce, Agua Salá", by Estéfano, Donato, and Batt.
"Con el pasar de los años~he aprendido en la vida~que se vive intensamente~porque si no se termina"
There is also a medley of rumbas that are mighty fine, and a sad song of lost love "Sin Excusas ni Rodeos" which was written by Julio, along with Estéfano, Donato, and Arcusa...the CD finishes with the wonderful Alvarez/Beigbeder "Vuela Alto". Needless to say, the arrangements are lush and the musicianship top notch. The Spanish guitar of Toledo deserves a mention in "La Luna me Engaño".
This CD is like one of those frothy, iced cappuccino drinks I indulge in once in a while...maybe a little sweet, but oh so yummy to the last drop. February 18, 2001
