5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent : includes some of Jose Alfredo's top songs, May 6, 1999
By A Customer
It is well known that Jose Alfredo Jimenez is something more than a composer or a singer. He is one of the century's top musical geniuses, who completely renewed th Mexican popular music. Though his voice is not the best, his feeling is unrepeatable. It is impossible to summarize his career in 33 songs (he recorded, it is said, over 350), but the ones included in this CD are among the very best he wrote.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sigue Siendo El Rey, July 16, 1999
By A Customer
Muy pocos son los compositores y cantantes que han logrado la gloria de inmortalizarse al mantenerse como figura estelar por muchas decadas y continuar en ese primer plano despues de varios anos de su fallecimiento. La musica de Jose Alfredo Jimenez ha deleitado a millones de personas de diferentes paises por varias decadas; ya sea en su propia y caraterística interpretacion, o en los mas variados estilos, voces y arreglos de una infinidad de interpretes que van, desde los mas sincillos trovadores, hasta los mas renombrados cantantes rancheros y baladistas internacionales. Con canciones sencillas y de situaciones cotidianas expresadas con mucho sentimiento e inspiracion, ha sido capaz de llegar indiscriminadamente a lo mas íntimo del corazon y la mente de multitudes, desde los mas humildes hasta los mas intelectuales, quienes se han convertido en mas de alguna ocasion, en protagonistas de sus historias o plegarias. Ahora despues de 26 anos de su fallecimiento, el corazon y carino de multitudes le han tributado su reconocimiento, consagrandolo como el mas grande de los compositores de la musica ranchera de México.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quintessential, May 2, 2005
By J. Marquez (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Its futile to argue about the merits of the music, its undeniable. The only thing I can add is that this particular compilation was materfully remastered especially in comparison to the 100 Canciones series which sounds hollow, distant & unbalanced.

Discutir los meritos de esta musica es un ejercio en la necedad, simplemente no se puede negar. Lo unico que puedo anadir es que esta compilacion, en particular, fue digitalizada brillantemente...particularmente en comparasion al la quadruple 100 Canciones que suena hueca, distante y sin balance.
