"I purchased this CD nearly two years ago, and I didn't especially like it at first, except for the beautiful photographs of Beltran on the cover and sleeves. The CD has grown on me with time, however. Two songs on the disc are absolute powerhouses. The music and Beltran's voice are so uplifting and the messages so optimistic that they can only lift one's spirits. These songs are "Y Me Volvi a Enamorar" and "Robame Un Beso". "Y Me Volvi a Enamorar" is a powerful medium-paced tune that is one of the best examples of Beltran's signature style: banda-bolero. Many folks have heard "Robame Un Beso" (it is one of Beltran's most popular songs) but it appears here with a completely new sound, full of banda flavor and moving at a quicker pace. Beltran delights the listener with special vocal features. A new version of "No Me Trates Mal" also appears on the disc. It is an interesting change for this Regional Mexican standard, but Beltran's original recording of the song, accompanied by mariachi, remains the better version. "Ya No" is a fast-moving cumbia that has been featured on many compilation albums, and is one of Beltran's best dance songs. The other songs on the disc are mostly re-makes of Mexican classics, although most of them don't spark as much interest as Beltran's newer, original material."
ES LA MEJOR SOLISTA QUE HAY!
