"The voice of Javier Solis may never come again but thank God it was captured and now released on CD. Along with Jose Alfredo Jiminez, amd Pedro Infante these guys are considered icons from a bygone era. Tragically he died young but his music lives on. If you're in the mood for some Mexican romantic music, or boleros, this is the one to put on. The arrangemants are superb, with full Mariachi that will fill your room and transport you to Mexico. "Payaso" and "En Mi Vijo San Juan" are two of my favorites. You might want to put this CD in the carousel with others to listen to as too many boleros can be hard to take. The beauty is in his rich tenor that melts hearts and makes even skeptics a little romantic. His voice is lush, strong yet at times whispering soft, but always good. If you want to experience some classic Mexican boleros this guy is the king of romantic music. The good thing is that his voice or lyrics never offend so it is not sappy or syrupy, just a beautiful voice singing from the depths of his soul for your heart."

Javier the best

"I have been listening to Javier Solis since I was a little girl back home in Belize in Central America. Javier Solis takes you into another world where music is music and you feel all warm and you love life at that specific moment that he is singing. The music by the mariachis is just overwhelming and you want to listen to it over and over. I just love TU VOZ and i can't see it on the internet. I think it must be on his first album. I wish the world would listen to this music as it is brilliant!..."
