Silvio El Grande.......2004-02-15

Silvio como siempre no hay cantante como tu que exprese sus sentimientos, en la musica mi hermano sigue pa' lante , por ti por cuba y fidel

Silvio is one of the best en todo el mundo..........2003-01-25

People from the United States (such as myself) need desperately to listen to music from around the world. Musically, we're a very isolated country. The burgeoning latino population has helped, but the music still somehow remains in the background, there for people who are looking to discover something new, but not for the public at large. Why Silvio Rodriguez is not played on most radio stations in the United States can only be explained by our monolingual culture and maybe xenophobia.

This CD shows that the Spanish speaking world has created some of the world's best music. If we've missed it because we're afraid of non-English lyrics, it's entirely our own loss.

If you haven't heard Silvio Rodriguez, then you are missing out. He is one of the best. His name is known everywhere south of the Rio Grande, and it's not hard to figure out why. This CD showcases some incredible music and lyrics and tells bits of his story. The guitar playing and singing are amazing. Some tracks are more produced than others. Some feature stark productions with guitar, voice and some rhythm instruments ("Sueño con Serpientes", "La Maza", "Playa Girón"). Others feature a wall of horns or strings or both ("Sueño de una noche de verano", "Como Esperando Abril", "Canto Arena"). All of them are great songs.

I've had this CD for years, and it has not fallen from prominence in my CD rotation. Silvio Rodriguez is still recording and going strong. If you're going to take a chance and listen to something new, unique and not in english, take a chance on this one. It could open up a new world to you.

It was my introduction to Silvio's music some years ago.......2002-01-07

I bought this production 4 years ago just because somebody recommended Silvio's music to me. This was the first of him that I saw so I decided to buy it, and it was one of the biggest musical discoveries of my life. I got traped since the very fist song Sueño de una noche de Verano, and one of its phrases "Si dicen que fui hecho para soñar el sol, y decir cosas que despierten amor, ¿cómo es posible, entonces, que duerma entre llantos de angustia y horror?.
Playa Giron, Unicornio, Oh Melancolia, Causas y Azares, there are many masterpieces in this cd.
But I have to tell something you must know and you must never forget. This is not a "greatest hits" production, this is only a selection of songs. Don't think that if you buy this cd you will have Silvio, you will have a minimal part of Silvio, I made that mistake.
This is a great introductory cd to the magnificent music of Silvio, but you should look for many more songs like Ojala, Por quien merece amor, Ya no te espero, Del sueño a la poesía, and many more. I have hundreds of songs of Silvio, and theres more to discover, Im sure.
Keep discovering Silvio Rodriguez, it could be one of the biggest discoveries in your life too.
Good Luck!

EL DELEITE DE LA MUSICA LATINOAMERICANA.......2001-08-20

ESTE CD ES UN COMPENDIO DE LOS GRANDES TEMAS DE ESTE GRAN SENOR DE LA MUSICA,NO SE LE PUEDE MENCIONAR D OTRO FORMA,ME ENCANTA SU MUSICA SU LETRA Y LA FORMA DE EXPRESAR PARA NOSOTROS SUS FANS,SU VERDAD Y LA NUESTRA,MUCHOS DE NOSOTROS NOS QUITAMOS EL SOMBRERO PARA DARNOS EL GUSTO Y EL PLACER DE SER UNOS ESUCHAS DE MI QUERIDO SILVIO, GRACIAS.

Muestra de un poco de lo mejor de Don Silvio..........1999-11-23

Un disco que resume en varias canciones lo mejor de la nueva trova Cubana. Silvio, sin duda es uno de los mejores, sin menospresiar a Don Pablo que es el nectar a los oidos de los amantes de la nueva trova.
