Product Description

Vicente Fernandez is not only the world's greatest living ranchera inger, he's also a true compadre who's willing to share the spotlight with his fellow artists. He's already paid tribute to iconic Mexican songwriters of yesteryear such as Jose Alfredo Jimenez and Agustin Lara. Now, he teams up with one of the most poetic composers of the past 35 years, The maestro Joan Sebastion, for an album with 12 brand new songs by Sebastian himself.

I haven't listened to mexican music in a while, much less ranchera but I, like most Mexicans, know and love alot of Vicente songs and consider him among Mexico's national treasures. This album got me back to listening to Mexican music again since I was hooked when I first heard the album (track 2). I also just learned that Joan Sebastian is responsible for writing all the tracks on this wonderful album. It's a fantastic album with wonderful lyrics (which makes or breaks a song for me) and once sung with Chente's wonderful voice, the album becomes irresistible. If Chente worked with Joan on the rest of his albums, I'd get them all. A second choice would have to be Marco Antonio Solis, also capable of writing in any genre if he feels like it. I haven't missed an album since "Mi Fantasia". Anyways, below are my fav 4 for now.

- Top 4:

- A Quien Vas a Amar Mas Que a Mi - "No vas hallar al ser maravilloso al ser perfecto, que rebase este amor y que en efecto, te entregue todo y mas de lo que di" OH MY GOD! Wonderful

- Niña Hechicera - Great tempo and Vicente makes you want to sing along.

- Para Siempre - Nice and slow guitar star with Chente singing: "Vale mas un buen amor, que mil costales de oro..." How true.

- Millon De Primaveras - Have someone in your past you just can't get over? This song is for you.

Here is what else I listen to when not Chente (Como Me Haces Falta is an example of great lyrics, at least for me, on this Bukis album):

A Donde Vas

Mi Fantasia

If you enjoy "ranchera" music with a touch of mariachi and ballads, you will really enjoy this CD. This CD will prove to the world that Don Chente is not ready to retire. His powerful voice shines remarkably romantic in "Para Siempre" and "Estos Celos".
