Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: My Parents Favorite Songs all in one Comment: So far, this has been my parents favorite CD. They have been listening to this CD for over a month and keep talking about their childhood years while listening. I also enjoy listening to those songs with my parents who discribe in detail their childhood and young adult years in Mexico. Customer Rating: Summary: A musical treasure Comment: An amazing collection of great songs by fantasic artists usually means that you have heard them all before. More than likely this will not be the case with this excellent two CD disc. Featuring 50 songs, the other 50 are on the equally fantasic Vol.1, there is enough music here to listen to during your festive moments or get together pachangas with your family. These songs are of the ranchera type from Mexico and span decades. There is music from the Golden Era of Mexican films and old time radio for your listening pleasure. Take a look at the featured artists. Literally a who's who of this Mexican genre, you'll find some of the greatest stars like the unforgetable Jose Alfredo Jimenez, matinee idols Pedro Infante and Jorge Negrete, the man with the white streak of hair and incredible voice, Miguel Aceves Mejia, super female vocalists like Lola Beltran, Lucha Villa, Amalia Mendoza and curious additions like Gloria Trevi, neglected and not as recognized talents like Alicia Juarez are all here among lesser known but very talented musicians. Growing up in the United States with roots in Mexcio I missed many of these songs, besides I can actually say I was too young! This disc fills the cultural gaps, a bit of modern nostalgia permeates from this disc like a charro riding off into the distance and returning in a truck. Listening to this disc is a bit like taking a ride through a time zone and learnig some history in the process. You will like this disc for the sheer diversity of artistry. There is a rich tradition preserved here for future generations that should not be missed. Take a look at the songs and artists again, it is worth buying, vale la pena. Unlike other compilations the included booklet gives valuable information like when it was recorded, the accompanying musicians(often El Mariachi Vargas De Tecalitlan) and the song authors. While you are at it order Vol. 1. A super package and at a bargain price because historical musical integrety is priceless. La musica es cultura, the music is culture, que viva la musica y la cultura, long live the music and the culture! More Reviews
