"This is Presuntos Implicados best record. It tells the story of two concerts given in their native Valencia, where they tried to breath new life into their greatest hits. If you consider yourself a music lover, especially a latin jazz lover, this is a must in your life. Presuntos Implicados is a group that puts out music that speeks to the heart. It combines the hot rythms of Latinamerica and Spain, with the sultry sound of Jazz or the adolscent freshness of pop and even with the greatness of loud sounding rock, courtesy of lead guitarrist Juan Luis Jimenez. But nothing will leave you with a desire for more than the pure, enchanting voice of lead singer Soledad Jimenez: it is something that ranks up there with Billy Holiday's sad melody and madam Jobim's soft exploration of sound with the human voice. If you are willing to broaden your horizons in musical knowledege, this is a good place to start. If your undecided on what to give that music expert friend of yours for his birthday, give hime this: he'll think your one of his kind. And if you just looking for another kind of "Chiken Soup for the soul", this record will keep you warm whenever your feeling a little under the weather. Buy it and I assure you, you'll be writing this review next."

"El blues, el jazz, los ritmos afrocaribenos y toda una gama de estilos de musicales se compenetran para solidificar este concierto en vivo, que a mi juicio, da fe de lo que es hacer buena musica y de lo que es ser un artista completo. Las canciones en este disco, recopiladas en original en otros anteriores, adquieren nueva vida con la magia rejuvenecedora que logran imprimir con unos arreglos y efectos de una calidad musical, distinguible. "La flor de la manana", es un ejemplo de una cancion inolvidable y muy bien pensada, donde Presuntos Implicados demuestra lo que es capaz de lograr."
Amazing compilation

"This is by far my favorite CD-- every song is great. This CD offers 'live' versions of nearly all the Presuntos' biggest hits which are better than the originals in my book. I strongly recommend this CD- it's worth the price..."

"This is one of those CD that you must carrie all the time, it is much much better than greatets hits, because all the jazz influece in known songs, and if you don't know it but you like this sound you will love it.Un CD que uno debe tener si le gusta presuntos implicados, y si no los conoce una buena oportunidad, los arreglos en Jazz los invitados y la interpretación son espectaculares y con muy buen gusto sobre todo."
Un doble regalo

"Este disco figura como uno de mis favoritos, en el se reunen no solo grandes canciones del trio, sino tambien un grupo de los mejores musicos españoles del momento. La colaboracion de Presuntos Implicados con Chano Dominguez en este disco es genial: los arreglos son equisitos, y la voz de Sole en directo es uno de esos regalos que no son de todos los dias. La recopilacion abarca tres diferentes 'vientos' que le dan a sus canciones mas conocidas. Creo que es uno de esos discos que reunen todos los elementos importantes para un amante de la musica: creatividad, talento y un afan por dar lo mejor a su publico.
-----------------
This album is one of my favorites, not only becuse most of their hits are here, but because they collaborate with the most important musicians in Spain from various genres. Colaborating with Chano Dominguez gives its touch of genious to the record: the arragements are exquisite, and Sole's live voice is one of those gifts that you do not receive every day. This compilation provides three different 'winds' to their hits. I think that it is one of those records that has all the important elements of someone who loves music: creativity, talent and the desire to give the best to their fans."
