"Isabel Pantoja is one of the premier artists of the now revitalized "Copla" style of music from Andalucia, Spain. It is a Spanish "blues" and she is the Spanish equivalent of a Koko Taylor. Isabel puts on a performance equal to none, her fire and passion will leave you energized. It helps if you speak Spanish, the words are sheer poetry./// Isabel Pantoja es una de los premier artistas de la "copla" en el mundo. La Copla viene de Andalusia, Espana y es los "blues" de Espana, habla de los experencias fuertes de la vida. Ella canta con un pasion que va a contaminarte. No puedes escuchar este disco sin sentir este pasion, chispa y orgullo de los Espanoles."
Reina De La Copla

"Hablar de ISABEL PANTOJA, es hablar de "Copla". Su nombre es propia "Copla". En esta grabacion nos demuestra una vez mas que lo suyo es esto, lo lleva en la sangre. Quien piense en Isabel Pantoja, piensa en copla, bata de cola,maton, penieta, en fin que es la unica y autentica, "REINA DE LA COPLA"//Who ever talks of ISABEL PANTOJA, talks of "La Copla. Her own name is pure spanish folk,it runs in her blood stream.In this recording she demonstrates once again that she's the one and only"Queen of Spanish Folk"(La Copla)."
Beautiful but not exceptional!

"I love Pantoja and always will. The orquestra was, for the most part, drowning Pantoja's voice. It seems that Pantoja was either lacking the "Copla" strength she once possessed or she wasn't at her very best when she recorded "A Tu Vera." For those who are familiar with her early recordings, in particular, "La Cancion Espanola, 1990," can FAIRLY compare her voice and sound. Although I do like this album, I am not very impressed with the results. I know she could had done better."
ISABEL PANOTJA THE QUEEN OF COPLA!

"WHAT CAN I SAY ABOUT LA PANTOJA? SHE IS HE ONLY TRUE COPLERA OF SPAIN AT THIS MOMENT. WITH HER GYPSY BACK GROUND SHE PUT FORCE IN HER VOICE FOR THE BEST BECAUSE SHE IS THE BEST. WHEN SHE PERFORMS, SINGING, DANCING, ETC. IT'S LIKE THE FIVE SENSES COMING TOGETHER ALL AT ONCE. LIKE ALL HER WORK THIS WAS ANOTHER MASTERPIECE FOR EVERYONES COLECTION. UN BESO MUY FUERTA PA' TI PANTOJA, OLE!!"
