"I will always insist that Luis Miguel's talent is first and foremost as a performer. This album proves this. Although I have yet to buy "Vivo", this album features some of LM's finest singing that I have yet to hear. I don't know if it is because LM's range and depth as a singer has grown so much since he recorded the studio versions of many of these songs, or if it is because he simply sings better live. Of particular note, the medley on disc one is incredible. Also, the mariachi tracks on CD two we hear a side of LM fans rarely hear. The mariachi tracks alone make this record a keeper. This is obviously a must for fans of LM, but it is also an excellent first LM record to own."

PERFECTION at its best!

"I was able to attend three cities of the concert tour of this recording, and was very much impressed with the presentation. Luis Miguel has proven that his live performances are as painstakingly produced as are his studio constructs. By far the most exciting of the entries are the numbers he performs with the "Mariachi 2000," one of the few Mariachi orchestras capable of taking a forceful performer's lead as is Luis Miguel's. One is left to wonder, in the wake of such an opulent interpretation of these particular songs, how long must one wait before a collection of these beautiful anthems of Mexico's Golden Age of Music he will produce. Also at the top of the list is his live rendition of "No Se Tu," his '92 entry for the Barcelona Games commemorative album by various artists, and a mainstay of his live performances. There is a medley of songs made popular in his early career presented with a modern stylization which makes them sound as if they'd been produced in his recent releases, but the entire album is a meticulous sample of his entire career in popular music. It is a remarkably "listen-able" recording, shattering the general opinion that live performances are not what they are proported to be. The companion video released under the same title is also rather good. If one is to create a collection of this artist,this particular is record a necessity!"
