"If you want a good introduction to the beautiful music of Monchy y Alexandra, this is the album to buy! Not only do we hear some of their biggest hits ("Hoja en Blanco," "Te Quiero Igual o Mas Que Ayer," "Dos Locos") we also hear examples of their great body of work that not everyone might have heard ("Pasion," "Hasta El Final," as a couple of examples). Those of you not familiar with bachata, this is one of the most beautiful styles of music from the Caribbean. Bachata comes from the Dominican Republic, and is a rhythm based romantic style of music/dance. You hear a combination of percussion of guitar, and, with Monchy y Alexandra's music, comes influences spanning various styles of music (blues, jazz, Middle Eastern).



This beautiful duo combines their passionate expression as musicians, as well as a distinctive style that makes them stand out from other vocalists in the world of bachata. You won't be disappointed........."

Very Good!

"Not the type of bachata I like to listen but this is the only pair of new bachateros that i would listen to.That being said im alittle old school when it comes to hispanic music and that goes for bachata and i would not buy any of their albums UNLESS IT WAS THIS ONE,THEIR GREATEST HITS album it has all their hits w/o wasting your money on all of the rest filler material that comes in todays albums. The only album to get from Monchy and Alexandra."
