Customer Reviews:

One of his most poetic, romantic and visionary albums........2003-10-01

Jose Jose's cover version of Barbara Streisand's "The Way We Were" ("Nuestros Recuerdos")is truly mind-blowing. He tackles both the joys and pains of love and romantic relationships on this album's songs in a very mature manner.

Plenty of passion and feelings........2000-02-19

ENGLISH: Jose Jose returns from his crisis of alcohol abuse in the first part of the 70's and he has a better style, mature, and he keeps his great voice in all the songs. Includes "Paloma", the soundtrack of a TV serie with the same name. Also includes the spanish version of "Feelings" (Sentimientos") that is still rememberes as a classic in spanish and engish. Spanish version of Chaplin's "The Terry Theme" (Candilejas), "Hoy vuelvo a ser...el triste" is the second part of his classic "El Triste". "Divina Ilusion" is one of the best songs in the album. This song, "Tu y yo", "Tan Cerca...tan lejos", "Porque yo no soy Poeta" and "Alas" are really beautiful and have poethic and interesting lyrics.

The whole album is a poem, and this album opens the door to a new era in the career of Jose Jose.
