Juan Luis Guerra is one of the best and this CD definitely has his best! If you don't own any of his CD's, must start with this one. Please note Track 3 is not "Woman del Callao" as the ad indicates, but "Si Tu Te Vas" which is a GREAT merengue song!!! So glad this song was in the CD! Like another reviewer said, this CD has beautiful, romantic, clean lyrics. Juan Luis Guerra's greatest hits include mostly merengue with some bachata hits (beautiful songs) and one salsa song. The tracks are as follow:
Track 1 - merengue
Track 2 - merengue
Track 3 - merengue
Track 4 - merengue
Track 5 - bachata
Track 6 - merengue
Track 7 - merengue
Track 8 - bachata
Track 9 - bachata ending with a slow salsa beat
Track 10 - merengue
Track 11 - merengue
Track 12 - salsa
Track 13 - bachata
Track 14 - merengue
Track 15 - merengue
You will be a merengue fan if you are not one yet once you own this CD. It'll get folks moving at your next party. Enjoy!

We enjoy listening to Latin music and this CD is one of the best to listen
to. It makes you get up and dance to this music.

I'm also of Dominican descent and love love love Merengue. But, some of the music out there is really perverted and not to be heard by young ears. My daughters (ages 2 & 3) absolutely LOVE Juan Luis Guerra and I encourage them to listen to his music because I know that the songs he sings are sweet, romantic and respectful to women. This album has my vote!
Music, Feelings & Rythm !

This was the first merengue album I bought, and since then I can't get enough of it! Juan Luis is definitely a GREAT artist. Just listen to it, and I am sure you will understand what I mean...! A Great album for people who want to know more about merengue and about the Dominican culture!

This is by far one of my favorite CD's ever!! I had a copy of this CD already but my toddler son scratched it and I was heartbroken. It is a must for replacement. This CD has a great mix of slow and fast songs (bachata, merengue, salsa and dare I even say one particular song that's part samba). Juan Luis Guerra has such a haunting voice when it comes to the ballads and the fast-paced songs are so danceable.
