Latin crooner-dreamboat Luis Miguel reached a creative impasse on his last studio album, 1999's Amarte Es un Placer, which simply recycled the same swooning sounds and themes of his previous collections. Vivo, Miguel's latest live recording, includes five songs from that mediocre album, but Miguel manages to inject them with a surprising vitality. He shines on the medleys, which feature 17 songs from Miguel's three albums of smoldering love songs. Even the most canned studio recordings ("Como Es Posible a Mi Lado," "Quiero") come alive onstage, thanks to Miguel's wonderfully rich and expressive voice. Vivo also includes two previously unavailable tracks, "Y" and "La Bikina." Miguel brings a passionate energy to both mariachi classics. The album's biggest testament to "Mickey's" talent, however, is his fans, who scream, sing, and swoon from beginning to end. --Joey Guerra

5.0 out of 5 stars POWERFUL!, October 4, 2000

By A Customer

INCREDIBLE! MICKEY HAS DONE IT AGAIN! I'M SURE ANYONE WHO WENT TO ANY OF THE AMARTE ES UN PLACER CONCERTS CAN REMEMBER HOW POWERFUL THEY WERE! THIS CD ILLUSTRATES JUST THAT! HIS VOICE IS INCREDIBLE. LUIS MIGUEL IS SIMPLY THE BEST AT WHAT HE DOES. THE EMOTIONS HE PUTS IN WHAT HE SINGS ON THIS CD ON SONGS SUCH AS "O TU O NINGUNA" AND "NOSOTROS" SHOWS WHY HE'S CONSIDERED AS THE BEST LATIN ARTIST. "VIVO" IS A MUST BUY FOR ALL LUIS MIGUEL FANS AND FOR ALL FANS OF GREAT LATIN MUSIC. I GIVE IT 5 STARS!

5.0 out of 5 stars Luis Miguel Sigue Siendo EL REY, November 2, 2000

By	Ana Luisa Aldana (San Mateo, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a long time LM fan (have most of his records, have been to most of his concerts in the '90's including the recent 'Amarte es un Placer' at the San Jose Arena), he never ceases to deliver memorable music to live and love to. He is an awesome performer that seduces you and captures you during his live performance. I love the way he sprinkles classic mariachi songs we all love into the live CD's (they are not regularly released on the regular CD's). Luis Miguel, when are you going to record a mariachi CD? TU SIGUES SIENDO EL REY.

Luis Miguel follow being the best singer of all Latin American Comunity. Fans must be grateful for this CD, it's got a lot of his style and personality. Some songs that are included in this Audio CD are the best of Luis Miguel, including a mix of Romance with songs like " No Me Platiques Mas / No Se Tu / La Puerta / La Barca / Inolvidable " and another with Romances: " Voy A Apagar La Luz / Contigo Aprendi / Por Debajo De La Mesa / El Reloj / Sabor A Mi / La Gloria Eres Tu / Besame Mucho ". Fans: There's more !!!! Two new songs: Y and La Bikina. In this CD Luis Miguel give to us all of himself and he makes to feel us that we were in the concert. Don't lose it!!
