Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Super addictive music.......2007-03-08

The voices and songs of these women haunt you way after you've turned off the CD with incredible melodies and instrumental backups. I would buy one for all of my women friends for Women's Day, today!

5 out of 5 stars Muy Hermosa! .......2005-05-27

Women of Latin America is truly a sweet treasure. This is the first album that i have bought from this series. I am very glad i did. Each artists from this CD exemplifies a mood in their own way. At times sensual to haunting, sad, and hopeful, these artists truly are talented, beautiful, and powerful. I wish artists like these had more praise and attention than the artists these days that are nothing more but entertainers using just sex appeal to be noticed. This is what real music is about, even when you don't know a single word from the lyrics! I know Spanish pretty well, and im telling you, even the lyrics are "muy hermosa" and just incredible. This is an album worth having if you truly appreciate the passion and beauty of the Spanish language, and beautiful Latin American woman. Gozar de la musica de vida!

5 out of 5 stars Vocal Prowess meets diverse styles.......2004-11-18

The lovely women of Latin America profiled in WOMEN OF LATIN AMERICAý were chosen for their vocal prowess, their diverse styles, and their ability to appeal across cultures to a wide audience outside of as well as within Latin America.
From Susana Baca to Lila Downs and Lhasa, Mexico to Columbia, WOMEN OF LATIN AMERICA is a recommended, diverse and lovely pick.

5 out of 5 stars Epitome of Feminine Vocal Grace .......2004-11-11

What a perfect intro CD to listeners new to Latin songs performed by some of the greatest female vocalists! The multifarious selection in the CD exposes the listeners to the rich spectrum of melodious, soothing, and sensual musical gifts that those female artists share with the rest of world with their grace. This CD also serves as a perfect ramification tool to deepen one's appreciation of any of the female vocalists listed. I like all of them and intend to purchase each vocalist's individual CD to further my understanding of her musical style and philosophy.

5 out of 5 stars Mesmerizing.......2004-10-30

These vocalists and the songs they sing are exquisite works of art. Each voice is distinctively rich and though I do not speak Spanish the words and rythms convey their own poetry,
