Comment: Originally released in 1964 on vinyl this a classic grouping of the fiery Amalia Mendoza and El Rey, Jose Alfredo. I immediatley purschased this when I saw it available again on compact disc.There are many reasons to include this CD in your collection. If you're a fan of Jose Alfredo or Amalia Mendoza than that should be reason enough, that they are both featured together is a magical moment to not be missed. Whether you are discovering or rediscovering the songs of Mexico this is truly a clasic pairing and recording. The songs are beautiful numbers where they either sing a duet or alternate solos. The duets are mixed with clarity and proportionally impeccable, each voice blending to create one new voice, Amalia y Jose Alfredo. Since the Mariachi Vargas deTecalitlan is "backing," the quality is of the highest standards under the direction of Ruben Fuentes. Jose Alfredo is in fine form, featured in equal billing and in rare form as he is performing mostly (8)songs that he did not pen. This further illustrates his versatitliy and magnificent interpretive voice. Listening to the two of them sing in harmony is a real treat, since they both had powerful voices and styles it is a match made in heaven. Amalia Mendoza matches El Rey's extended notes, note per note, neither faltering, both accentuating the lingering moments to create a frozen historical moment in time. It is like triple harmony at times, the duets, the solos and the Mariachi, all alternating in unison to create a synergistic musical fiesta. Twelve songs recorded nearly forty years ago to be enjoyed then, now and forever. A must have for El Rey fans.
