THIS SHOULD BE YOUR FIRST PEDRO INFANTE CD,
October 25, 2002 Juan Olvera (Orlando, Florida United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Boleros De Oro (Audio CD)
If you are fond of listening to boleros and want to buy a cd this is the FIRST cd you should get. This cd is a classic. I bought this on the Peerless label a while back so it was kind of expensive because it was imported. but now WEA did some deal with Peerless(to my surprise because Peerless was reluctant to accede to any foreign company) and WEA re-released his cd's but at a cheaper price(great!). DO NOT BUY PEDRO INFANTE ON ORFEON. ONLY on Peerless WEA. Peerless did a good job in safeguarding Pedro Infante's classic music. I am not from that era( I was born in the seventies) but I must say his voice I have not seen a match yet. This cd is a must since it contains his most known songs like Amorcito Corazon.

This review is from: Boleros De Oro (Audio CD)
This is a great album and a good one to start a Pedro Infante collection. His warm, romantic voice combined with the great mariachi accompaniment--superb!! El jazmin deshojado is a beautiful song; the lyrics are pure poetry, the melody is gorgeous.
One minor quibble: Many of these songs are not boleros, but waltzes and rancheras. It doesn't matter, but the title should be something like "Canciones romanticas de oro".

The Romantic songs of Pedro Infante,
September 2, 2006 Kokegg (Austin, TX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Boleros De Oro (Audio CD)
It is a great classic CD of Mexican history. Unfortunately, the recoding quality could be a little better. While you hear very little scratching in the background, the volume quality is not stable through the whole CD. It needs to be remastered a little better. Nevertheless, we should remember that these songs were recorded on the 40-50s and you cannot expect the same crispy quality as today studio recordings.
Pedro Infante continues to conquer our hearts with his great movies and songs broadcasted on TV and the radio
