5.0 out of 5 stars A monumental album, December 2, 2000

By	O. M. Suarez "aerobol" (Mayagüez, Puerto Rico) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I believe that this is perhaps one of the best CDs in my collection as it was one of the best in my old LP collection. Silvio is unquestionably a reference in Latin American folk music. He's an accomplished guitar player, an amazing singer and a monumental songwriter. His lyrics in this album have a touch of César Vallejo (the Peruvian poet) and surrealism, and yet they can be humorous and incredibly moving. Unicorn, the song, has become a Latin American anthem. La Maza, La Gaviota, Por quien merece amor are pure poetic gold. If someone wants to get exposed to this Cuban artist, THIS is the CD to get introduced to his art. You'll not regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Obra de arte de America Latina., October 13, 2000

By	"elticonc" (United States) - See all my reviews

Silvio es el gran trovador de nuestra Patria Morena. Este disco es uno de mis favoritos puesto que contiene de principio a fin, mensajes inteligentes acerca de diferentes aspectos de nuestra vida cotidiana en America Latina: amor, patriotismo, nostalgias, esperanzas, temores y mas. Es, simplemente, poesia pura. La musica es muy bella y lamento no ser musico para poderla apreciar desde un nivel mas tecnico. Obra de arte.

5.0 out of 5 stars A warm-hearted voice will make you comfortable, July 22, 2000

By	Hwang Woo Chang (Seoul South Korea) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Silvio Rodriguez is a cuban singer, who has a warm-hearted voice and led the new wave of cuban song movement(nueva trova). If you are a fan of Mercedes Sosa, and also you ever heard 'Unicornio' and 'La Maza' sung by her, it's written by Silvio originally. He is an icon of new Cuban music movement, you can check it out while istening this CD including his finest best songs. Trembling soft voice and strings will make you comfortable, and will make you in a midsummer cuban night's dream.
