Synopsis

Amazon.com

After 10 albums of slick salsa rhythms on the Sony Discos imprint, Puerto Rican heartthrob Jerry Rivera switches labels (to BMG U.S. Latin) and sounds on this eponymous effort. The album is a polished affair that finds the young singer wrapping his substantial vocals around a bevy of dreamy ballads and mid-tempo swooners. It's quite a shock considering Rivera's salsa-drenched history, but he handles most of the material well, thanks to the guidance of writer-producer Bebu Silvetti. The album's first single, "Quiero," is sure to make an impact, especially since it is featured in both ballads and salsa versions. (That trick has worked in the past for hit singles from Gisselle, Jaci Velasquez, and MDO.) The rest of the album is awash in dewy-eyed love songs, including "Tu," "Muero," and "Que Queda de Nuestro Amor," which seem poised to catapult Rivera into romantic balladeer status à la Luis Miguel. Some of the sounds are repetitive, but Rivera spices things up with "Vuelve," a Rudy Perez-produced track that rides a lilting pop beat, and "Caramelito," which features the now-requisite Santana-esque guitar riff. --Joey Guerra

CD Reviews

WEEEEEEPPPPPPPPPPAAAAAAAA!!

JONNY | SAN JUAN PUERTO RICO | 07/12/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Having all the albums that Jerry Rivera has ever put out I'm quite impressed with his newest sound. He will always be the Prince of Salsa and now the skys the limit....It will take some getting used to for the old die hard Rivera salsa fans,but the new sound is well worth getting use to. Great job Jerry !! Keep making us proud!"

"SOLO PARA ROMANTICOS"

ALEK LAUREANO | New Berlin, Wisconsin - USA | 04/05/2001

(5 out of 5 stars)

""Solo para romanticos" es la unica frase para describir esta excelente produccion de Jerry Rivera. Este disco lo disfrutaras de principio a fin. Contiene 13 temas donde la mayoria son baladas, contiene Pop, Rock y una maravillosa version salsa del tema "Quiero". Este trabajo, el primero de Jerry Rivera totalmente de baladas, fue producido por el maestro Bebu Silvetti. Todos los temas estan excelentes pero los mejores lo son "Muero", "Vuelve", "Y se escapo el amor", "Caramelito", "Que queda de nuestro amor" y Tu". Ademas las dos versiones del tema "Quiero" en balada y en salsa. Sinceramente que Jerry Rivera tiene una voz increible y una excelente calidad para interpretar balada o cualquier genero musical, ya sea salsa, rock o pop. Cuando hay talento nada mas importa solo cantar lo que uno quiere y lo dejarse llevar por los sentimientos. Cuando escuches este CD podras viajar a la histria de cada uno de los temas incluidos en este disco. Sin duda alguna me atrevo a decir que este es uno de mis CD's favoritos y lo recomiendo a cualquiera que disfrute de la buena musica y con calidad. Tambien recomiendo la excelente produccion de la cantante Jessica Cristina titulada "Pasional"."

LO MAXIMO

"ESTE CD ES LO MAXIMO, DE VERAS QUE JERRY RIVERA SE BOTO CON EL ROMANTICISMO Y LOS TEMAS COMO CARAMELITO, VUELVE Y UNA SEÑAL ESTAN MUY RITMICOS. SIEMPRE ME ENCANTO SU SALSA SABROSA Y ROMANTICA, PERO SABIA YO QUE SU TALENTO DABA PARA MUCHO MAS. TE FELICITO JERRY POR TAN EXCELENTE PRODUCCION!!!!!"
