"This magnificent Madrileña has become famous for singing the classic popular songs of Latin America. She is a masterful interpreter of this music, from the compositions of Argentina's Atahualpa Yupanqui, to Mexico's Jose Alfredo Jimenez, and has an astounding repertoire of over 500 songs.Though her recordings have sold in the millions around the world, sadly, she's been vastly under-appreciated in the U.S. Her mellow voice is exquisite, her style a blend of simplicity and sophistication, and she's an enchanting presence as a perfomer, with incredible beauty and elegance.In this collection of 20 songs, every track is a winner. The musicianship and arrangements are marvelous, and the sound is good. Total time is 54'18.
This is a great CD for peaceful listening, and would also be the perfect accompaniment for a quiet dinner party, to go with the best of wines. There is a flowing grace to this music, a perfect balance...one of the reasons she is known as La Gran Dama de la Cancion."

Maria Dolores one of the best voices in the world.

"I grew up listening to the music of Maria Dolores from my mothers tape player. Only now do I realize the beauty of her music. Her songs of broken relationships are intesified with her powerful voice. The anguish of a lost love is realistically rendered through her voice. The pain projected in her voice is the closest replication of the true emotions of the songs. Finally, the guitars on most of the songs are beatifull."
