5 out of 5 stars One of my favorite singers in one of my favorite albums.......2004-10-15

I've been a fan of Jose Jose ever since I started college in Puerto Rico back in '91. Jose was already past his artistic peak but it was then that I discovered his outstanding earlier work. This is one of the Jose's last albums in his "Golden Age" of the late '70's and early '80's. He then started a new era with "Secretos" his best selling albums with supperb compositions by Manuel Alejandro. However, starting with that album his style became more subdued and less dramatic, in my opinion. Even so I love next two albums after that one (Reflexiones and Secretos). By the end of the 80's his albums started becoming more commercial and lacked the passion that characterized his earlier performances.
Gracias is a great album with songs full of feelings especially "Gracias", "Preso", "Me Basta", "Amame" and a particularly powerfull one, "Vamos a Darnos Tiempo". It is also especial for me because I started listening to this one from a tape recording of my folks' Gracias LP just before the time when I met my wife and brings back special memories.
Believe me, I you don't know Spanish these artist makes it worth learning it. Look for all of his stuff from 1977 to 1985 or so. He has even earlier albums from his first era of success from 1971 to 1976 but it is a very different and dated style so I would recommend you start on his '77 and later work.
