"Review in english and spanish

English: I can't beleive this is the only review. I think i have heard 20 records of Silvio, and maybe 5 or 6 videos, and this is the best record. It has all types of songs, political, love, people, remembers, etc. Also, the musical arrangements are great, including guitar-solo, band, and so on. Highly recommended, this is part of the 3 or 4 must have for Silvio. It worth every penny.

Espanol: Este disco es excelente, si te gusta Silvio, o no tienes ningun disco y quieres uno solo que tenga todo, este es el que necesitas. Un clasico total."

Pura magia!

"Silvio Rodriguez came into my life via this album. I have learned that it is unique for this incredible poet because of the various instruments that are used. Silvio alone with his guitar is a rare treat, but on this album he is backed by a whole symphony of sound. After listening to the album a thousand times, I still cannot recognized each instrument being used. Allow Silvio and his jazz-like, trova nueva melodies and lyrics to take you where you've never gone before, for this is a one-of-a-kind musical masterpiece. Even if you do not understand the lyrics, which are incredible and profound, the rythms of this album are exceptional."

"Ocurre en el caso de Silvio, que dice cosas tan simples, tan llenas de poesia y a la vez universaliza los sentimientos dando a sus textos el peso de una sabiduria que asombra y emociona a la vez. Quien escucha los versos del tema "Causas y Azares" debe irse en una profunda reflexion de su tiempo presente y del destino que se teje en torno suyo. "Historia de las Sillas" es una de mis favoritas, en especial una frase que tiene el peso de advertencia en toda experiencia de mi vida: "...el que siga buen camino tendrá sillas peligrosas que lo inviten a parar..."
La primera vez que compre un cassette de Causas y Azares (era cinta en aquel tiempo) terminaba en la Coda. Al llegar a ese punto me invadia una emocion que me obligaba a dar vuelta la cinta para empezar a escuchar de nuevo. Los temas que se suman en el CD dan oportunidad de conocer mas de este artista tan maravilloso. Comprenlo y disfrutenlo con el alma y los oidos."
