2.0 out of 5 stars Buyer Beware - Potential Record Company Rip Off, November 28, 2007

This review is from: VENEGAS JULIETA REALMENTE LO MEJOR (Audio CD)

I purchased this compilation at a popular department chain and have to warn the consumer that this compilation reeks of a record company rip off, not only of the fans, but also Julieta herself. First of all, the CD is mislabeled. It claims to include the song "Como Se," one of her biggest hits, as track #2 and it doesn't. Second, instead of getting "Como Se" you get "Primer Dia" as tracks 11 and 12 (WTF!?!?!). Also, the lack of other Julieta gems, like her song from Amores Perros is a minus as well. Looks like SONY is out to hustle its Latin artists (as usual) and the consumer gets reamed too in the process. You'll have better luck downloading your favorite tracks from iTunes or making your own compilation if you already own Julieta's individual CDs. I bought the CD for my wife who loves some of her songs and I've been had. Que jodida!

4.0 out of 5 stars NOT GREAT BUT WORTHY, May 11, 2008

By 

Music Fan "Marce" (Argentina) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Realmente Lo Mejor (Audio CD)

I had heard nothing about Julieta Venegas until a few days ago, when I saw a TV program in which she was featured, and inmediately I liked her style. So I decided to buy a record of her, and thought that a compilation was the right way to start. Then I bought this CD and heard it. Now I think that none of the songs on it is a masterpiece, but every song is very catchy, and I don't regret with this record.
Some other reviewers stated that there was a manufacturing error, but at least my copy features the twelve songs as indicated on the label.
I recomend this solid compilation from this mexican singer for those who don't know her and, like me, had heard nothing from her work before.

Well, if you've never bothered to buy a Venegas CD then this is the item for you. If you already have all her previous records then maybe this isn't for you since there is nothing new on it. Unless you're a collectionist of course.
I feel that to make this compilation more interesting, more rare songs should've been added like La Jaula De Oro and Pobre De Ti. Not even Amores Perros is included and that was a semi big hit for her!
Supposedly there will be a double CD edition of this compilation that'll hopefully included all those rare songs I mentioned but to this date I've seen nothing of it.
I can't help but think of this compilation release as nothing more than her record label simply cashing in.
