This CD is a perfect example of what real music is , the emotions that are heard through the music is wonderful, I thank my mother who I remember when I was younger used to listen to this record and now that I am older I can appreciate it.

"La Historia del Divo" is a good overview of a legendary career and encompasses the many facets of Gabriel's genius, from the sweet "pop" sound of one of his greatest hits, "Querida," to the more traditional numbers which tend to be my favorites and use mariachi arrangements, like "No vale la pena," "Te voy a olvidar," and "Se me olvido otra vez." The big winner for me in this compilation is the glorious "Hasta que te conoci," with its slow orchestral build-up, meaningful lyrics, and Gabriel's plaintive, heart-wrenching vocal. Also an outstanding track is the final "Amor eterno," recorded live, and sung to his mother, and other mothers "mas lejos de aqui."

As one of Mexico's greatest and most prolific songwriters, with a strong, unique voice and charismatic performance style, few, if any, have reached the pinnacle of artistic achievement and international renown that Gabriel has had in his long career. The first in a lengthy string of hits for himself and so many other top stars was in 1971, when he was 21, with "No tengo dinero" (track # 2), and his melodic songs have an unlimited "shelf life," as Ana Gabriel had a Top 40 hit with this same song in 1995. And his creativity keeps shining brightly...viva El Divo! May he live long and prosper always. Overall sound is good, and total playing time is 68'53.

I checked this CD out of the library. It has some of my favorite Juan Gabriel songs: Querida, Con Tu Amore, Siempre En Mi Mente, No Vale La Pena and Ya Lo Se Que Tu Te Vas. Nice CD.
