Customer Reviews:

Most definitely NOT a good or comprehensive collection........2004-08-30

If this compilation truly lived up to its title it would have included such legends as Jose Jose, Cheo Feliciano, Santos Colon, Los Tres Diamantes, Los Tres Reyes and Los Tres Caballeros among others. Another problem is that most of the versions included here are covers and not the originals. This is most definitely NOT the essence of Latin music.

Best collection ever.......2002-12-10

This CD is absolutely the best collection of Latin Music I ever heard. It toally takes me away when I listen to it. Makes me "swoon". Arrangements are fabulous.

Loved it, Can't get enough!.......2001-08-03

As a child I would hear my parents play these old records. This album bring backs wonderful memories of childhood and innocence. Reminds me of watching "I love Lucy" and of sitting on the porch on summer afternoons; while all the neighbors had their radios turned on to the spanish stations and everyone would be dancing in the street. Yes, their are some songs I would have added, but no one can give you everything. This album is just a little slice of heaven and the good old days.

More Misses than Hits.......2001-07-22

Any compilation of the "greatest" anything for any long period of time is fraught with potential problems. Granted that, the selections made are pleasant enough if one is trying to introduce Latin music to someone unfamiliar with it. To anyone even moderately familiar with the genre, this collection is a major disappointment. "Granada" as a love song? The performances mix great artists with some who do not do justice to some good accompaniment. The major flaw, however, is omitting the real greats, Pedro Vargas singing "Mujer" for example, and ignoring much that is Latin, "Uno" and "El Dia Que Me Quieras" tangos, "Limena" and other Peruvian valses. I would pass and look for my own favorites.
