CD Reviews

A GREAT MEXICAN WALTZ CD
Juan Olvera | Orlando, Florida United States | 12/07/2002
(5 out of 5 stars)

"There is one waltz missing on the cd: Rosas' Sobre Las Olas. Other than that this is cd is very pretty. Anything with Solis' voice is worth the price to get."
El lirismo de Javier
Pedro Fonseca | Bogota, Colombia | 02/25/2000
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Este es uno de los discos mas agradables al oido por sus acordes, la voz de Javier y una recopilacion de bellos valses que nos mueven a recordar agradables momentos. La calidad de esta obra ha sido tal que tambien fue grabada con acompañamiento de Banda. Otra excelente faceta de su obra musical."
Pleasant But Hardly Outstanding
Kurt Harding | Boerne TX | 06/02/2008
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Even though I grew up hearing lots Mexican music at home, I don't recall ever hearing Javier Solis. But recently one of his other albums was recommended to me by a reviewer who has read many of my reviews, so I ordered it (Fantasia Espanola de Agustin Lara) and liked it well enough to try another Solis recording. I like waltzes, and the price was right so I settled on Valses as my second Solis outing.

Well, I find it to be pleasant but hardly outstanding. There is not a single tune that I'd heard before (and I am familiar with literally hundreds of Mexican classics) nor is there a single tune that I find memorable. Solis has a great voice, its just too bad that he chose a group of rather bland songs on which to use it. If I was forced to pick a "favorite", it would be Ojos de Juventud. But even that is not all that great of a song.

So as far as Valses goes, I have to remain neutral and give no recommendation one way or the other except to try the Solis covers of Lara if you haven't heard them yet."
