5.0 out of 5 stars Es La Cosa! Cóhelo!, October 3, 1999

I first saw Elvis Crespo at the Carnival '99 on Telemundo. At first his voice sounded a bit nasal for my taste, but as I watched him entice that huge audience to "Levántate"(Get on up), I realized what a talent he has. I have only heard a bit of his previous album and plan to buy it, but I love this one. The man has style and such a fun positive attitude. "Píntame" is great song with a catchy beat and a sweet sentiment. It is a credit to Elvis that he wants to write songs that respect women (he has said this in an interview). My other favorites are "Solo me Miro", "No Comprendo" and "Vuelve Conmigo". "Tiemblo" is also fun. The mix of the horns, piano and percussion just makes me want to dance. I also really love his backup singers. The ballad "Enamorado De Ti" is a nice break in the middle of the album. The guitar music is beautiful and it allows you to catch your breath before "Por El Caminito". The only disappointment was "Pequeño Luís". I found it maudlin and out of place with the other songs. The lyrics to most of the songs are not complex, but for non-Spanish speakers that is really a plus. I'm fluent, but Spanish is a second language for me and I love being able to sing along even though the songs are fast. Anyone who likes this album should check out his duet "Para Darte Mi Vida" with Milly Quesada on her new album "Vive". I play both albums all the time! I am ready for his next album any time he wants to release one! Cóhelo, AaaaH!

5.0 out of 5 stars This is NOT SALSA but MERENGUE, November 22, 1999

The album is good, not a doubt, very dancing and very fun. But I am writing this to say that, despite classified under latin/salsa section, this album is not salsa music, in contrary to some statements I read in this section. In spite of being very similar, both rhythms are different, and dance differently.

In fact, Elvis Crespo is a merengue composer, and this album show some really good merengues. But if you're looking for salsa, try Marc Anthony intead.

5.0 out of 5 stars excelent, October 25, 1999

This album is so up beat and yet it has it's slow ballads also, if your not in to salsa music you will be after hearing this album. Hearing elvis sing and hear the music brings out the dance in you. I went and bought this cd because i was curious as to what he sounded like . . .no regrets whatso ever. If you do not understand spanish or spanglish then you will certanlly want to learn after hearing this album.
