Miss Estefan, I have so much respect for you as an artist and as a human being. Not only you are beautiful, but you have real talent and you are a classy lady who has never forgotten where she came from or her people(unlike Jennifer Lopez). Thank you for bringing so much happiness to so many. Bless you always.

All Hail Gloria: The Queen of Latin Pop.......2006-12-05

Released in conjuction with "Oye Micanto: Los Exitos", her Spanish retrospective, "The Essential Gloria Estefan" covers Gloria's English material over two discs. The first disc focuses on her upbeat and dance oriented material, while the second deals solely with her ballads.

Prior to this, Gloria had released a hits set in two volumes, the first coming in 1992, the second in 2001, & a Spanish ballads collection in 2004. While those collected majority of her hits, there were some glaring omissions & missteps.

This is what makes this collection a must for any hardcore fan or new fan starting out, because it includes all of her typical staples. Amongst those, songs that had been left off of her previous sets are here: "Dr. Beat", "Cuts Both Ways", "Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me", "Falling In Love (Uh-Oh)", "Don't Let This Moment End". There are others that not only are featured for the first time, but are being featured in the versions that were played at radio: "Bad Boy", "Go Away", "Live For Loving You", "You'll Be Mine (Party Time)". Gloria even drops in a few Spanish hits("No Me Dejes De Querer", "Mi Tierra", & "Si Senor!") to add curiosity to her Spanish work, which again, is covered well on the "Oye Micanto: Los Exitos" collection.

There are still some omissions that only the true Gloria heads may notice: "Betcha Say That", "Out of Nowhere", "I Got No Love", "You Can't Walk Away From Love", "Higher", "It's Too Late", etc. But many of these were minor, minor singles often only released in a promotional capability.

The packaging is nice as well, including some pretty good photos of Gloria, & an excellent essay on her & her contribution to popular music, & Latin music in particular.

The music is timeless, so the chronological order that is lacking here doesn't hurt, because Gloria has had the knack to maintain quality througout her 20+ years career. From authentic Latin flavored dance floor bangers, or the heart string tugging ballads, Gloria's rich, emotive voice has fueled them all.

Before Jennifer Lopez or Shakira, Gloria was breaking ground in the music world. This collection is a celebration of Gloria's work, & if you haven't experienced the joy of her music, this is the perfect place to start. Highly recommended!

The Esssential Tito Puente.......2007-07-15

This is by far the best Tito Puente Complation I have ever heard. It captures the Master Timbalero at his prime. The remastered CD is awsome and never sounded better. It is a must for Tito Puente Fans

Good one.......2005-08-31

I don't have this album but hearded it on winamp the musics are very good in fact it has the best musics of winamps latin arquives.My favorite is the first track even knowing winamp does not put the number of the tracks it's easy to know because the melodies can not variate so much in one track and one track does not durates more than one hour.However it's worth buying it.

A Classic Recording.......2007-03-09

This was a great buy for me. The power and accuracy of Placido's voice are demonstrated well. Two CD's and 34 songs--just can't beat that for the price.

A must for a Placido fan.......2005-04-23

If you've continously listened to this master of tenors and said "wow, I like it, I want to listen even more of him", then raise it to 5 stars, which is the rating I personally give the CD; HOWEVER, if you've only heard him once or not at all, you might want to wait a while and get to know him and other tenors better. Why? Well, disc 1 is the "classical" disc, with arias from famous operas and choral pieces by Puccini and the like, but disc 2, the "modern" or "popular" disc, contains music that will leave you a bit puzzled, since it's is not for everyone; a lot of people have never heard zarzuela or tunes by Manzanero or Lecuona. In short, this disc is better suited for fans of Placido or people who want to know him better, if not, it still is a top choice, and this way you just might fall in love with him (well, his singing, not him literally).

Great for what it is.......2005-01-13

I agree with the previous poster that this does not contain his great dramatic stuff like otello/wagner, but the collection is a beautiful one. There are some great recordings here, and his crossover stuff(maria, Dulcinea, impossible dream) is very interesting. His opera is of course impecable and brilliant. Finally we get to hear Domingo's high C in Di Quella Pira, and its a good one. The zarzuela or spanish operetta type songs and are wonderful.

I found this to be beautiful and exhilirating to listen to.

Certainly not ALLL the Essential Domingo.......2005-01-03

I grew up with Placido Domingo. Not in the sense of being boyhood friends, but rather in the sense that he was part of my "Golden Age" at the Metropolitan Opera. Of the "Three Tenors" (more Marketing hype than useful grouping of three fine singers) Domingo was the most dramatic - the "heaviest" of the three. His repertoire extended well beyond the lyric - and that's why this collection is not all the "essential" Domingo, but rather offers an interesting look at the lighter, more lyric side of Placido Domingo. You won't find Lohengrin or Otello here, but you will find many of the more lyric tenor arias from Verdi, Puccini and Donizetti - to name a few.

There is an "edge" to Domingo's voice that perhaps accounts for his ability to transition successfully into the heavier repertory. I find that tonal quality particularly noticeable in this collection - and sometimes too pronounced. On the other hand, there are a few wonderful surprises. His "Una furtiva lagrima" from L'elisir d'amore is a stand out. Its rare you here a tenor with this much power sing the role. The duet "Bima dagli occhi" from Madama Butterfly with Renata Scotto, again casts Pinkerton with a quality tenor not often found in the opera house any more. I loved the selection from Gianni Schicchi - when is the last time you found Rinuccio cast with this size tenor voice - and the Italian tenor's aria from Rosenkavalier is a treasure from a recording currently out of print. And then there is one of Domingo's signature roles - Jack Rance in Puccini's La Fanciulla del West. No one sings Rance better than Domingo - and the excerpt from the complete recording finds Domingo at his very best.

Disk two is devoted to song - popular and classical. There is a fair amount of tripe - too much cross over (as in who needs to hear Domingo sing "The Impossible Dream" from Man of La Mancha - Broadway is not Mr. Domingo's genre). But there are some wonderful cuts as well - "Granada" is a Domingo encore specialty, and I was particularly struck by the song "In Pace" from the motion picture Hamlet - I never saw the film and was truly taken aback at how beautiful a song this is, and Domingo's voice soars.

I found the sound of these CD's a bit "tinny". Perhaps its the analogue to digital conversion, but I was disappointed in the overall sound. The album is badly mistitled "The Essential Placido Domingo". Certainly this is some of the essential Domingo - and some very wonderful examples of the lyric Domingo - but there is clearly a volume two to come - the dramatic Placido Domingo. But why wait - buy this fine collection, and then feast on some of the complete recordings such as Otello or Lohengrin.

Solid, comfortable, familiar -- very good!.......2005-01-01

Why wait to see if this reviewer enjoyed Sony's latest offering: I did, and so will you. Hats off to Sony for getting it right with this two CD, 34-song bonanza of Placido Domingo singing -- well, as the name implies -- the essentials, from opera to Broadway to Hollywood, in a mix that keeps its distance while holding it all together in a package that breeds enough familiarity to make even the most harsh tenor critic purr. The more clasical offerings are on the first CD and the more sentimental are on disc two. Interestingly, I found side two more seductive and subdued in tone, and enjoyed listening to Mr. Domingo's interpretation of such popular favorites as "Maria" from "West Side Story", "Dulcinea" from "Man From LaMancha" and a couple duets with John Denver (Perhaps Love) and Maureen McGovern (A Love Without End). The songs selected for side two actually did set a thematic tone. Readers of my reviews know that I place a high value on a CDs overall ability to present what is offered in a bundle that sets and keeps a mood. I usually ask two questions: is it consistent once the mood is set; and does it keep the listener in that mood throughout once established? Here, well, here, I break from tradition and profess some confusion. The mood on disc one is not thematic but ecclectic -- from solo's to duets, from live recordings to studio, from one orchestra to the next, from upbeat to mellow. Technically, while there is some difference in the overall sound quality while switching from one setting to another, it is something you would have to listen for to catch, and becaue of this doesn't amount to a serious flaw as presented. What saves disc one from my usual "tenor blahs" is Mr. Domingo's exceptional voice and the selection of songs chosen -- which, while altering between one mood and another, are all familiar enough that we listen with knowing ease to what we expect. This isn't the kind of CD you put on while holding a conversation with anyone, but rather one you would put on, close your eyes and listen to for its sheer technical achievement -- or more precisely for Mr. Domingo's talent. The voice is clear and strong and passinate and reflects Mr. Domingo's control of his range and interpretive skills. Listen to Verdi's "Ingemisco" with The London Symphony and Leonard Bernstein; Puccini's "Bimba Dagli Occhi" with Renata Scoto (he sings a couple meodies with Scoto) and Umberto Giordino's "Amor ti Vieta" from Fedora to get an idea of what I am referring to here. It took me a couple sessions with each side to settle down and appreciate what was offered. Hopefully this review will get you ready and you will enjoy it from the start. PJW

Customer Reviews:

Mendes Magic.......2006-11-17

Essentially, Mendes captures the best of the oddly complex, yet deceptively simple, emotions of the 60's with his Latin tones and international rhythms. "Scarborough Fair", for example, never sounded better--with all due respect to the original duo, of course. "The Look of Love" is another track that touches chords of heart and song that could be woven into the sound track of any movie and complement romantic images of the trash and truth of a New York City street scene (anyone of a million already out there or being dreamed up as this is being written), or create an uneasy current of sweet underscoring as the ironic sadness of a jungle war scene swayed to Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" in "Good Morning, Viet Nam!"

Unfortunately, the Broadway and Beatles bits, and some of the other basic stuff Sergio does, can stay trapped in the dust-covered sound systems of those ancient, smokey-smelling elevators, no?

No matter. Mendes can still draw magic from the emotional memory. May still do so for many more years to come. Enjoy then and now, and everything between, with a little of this "Essential Mendes" magic.

no more rap versions..........PLEASE!.......2006-08-28

You heard the Mas Que Nada rap version?.........and thought: Hey I recognise that sound, but then: It used to sound smoother and without the rap crap?! Well, good! Welcome to the original recording of mas que nada, and many more top songs from Sergio and his gang. This album will last a life time without boring you, and it is as smooth as the brazilian coffee!

The Essential Sergio Mendes.......2005-10-07

This great music. It is wonderful to have the old music re-issued on such a pristine format. What a fabulous way to bring out music from the 60's

Heavenly!.......2005-06-19

If you like Bossa Nova and Sergio Mendes, DONT'T HESITATE to get this CD! It is very comprehensive with all the most beautiful songs in one package. The recording is excellent - clear, warm and dynamic. Forget about all the other albums - trust me. Enjoy!
