5.0 out of 5 stars Essential Ana Torroja, January 3, 2005

A beautiful collection of spanish music and videos of one of the most talented female vocalist. If you enjoyed her voice with the 80's group Mecano, you will love this mature collection. I do not understand how this fabulous woman from Spain gets overshadowed by other latin female singers. In fact, my opinion is that her first album, which was lovely, somehow got overshadowed by Mecano's greatest hits album which came out soon after. Her presence and voice have angelic properties.

For those who wish to see and hear a beautiful female spanish artist, start with this collection. This CD has been one of the best in my latest music collection, thanks Ana.

4.0 out of 5 stars Uneven but pleasant, August 19, 2008

It takes a while to get used to the thin quivering voice of Ana Torroja but once you do, she delivers beautifully. She is a little uneven in her choice of material with some songs just slipping by as mere pop filler and others sticking to your head like a bad dream , "Duele el Amor" for example. This is a very gentle and smooth record which sets Ana Torroja aside from other recent spanish authors that tend to cater to more aggressive or political audiences.

I was fan of Mecano, but It's great to listen to Ana Tarroja, with her smooth and sweet voice, in more mature songs. And she sings a lot!
Great opportunity to try her new musics, and solo career.
