"A must for all Raphael fans. It provides the opportunity to get a hold of the songs from those hard to get original (or ealry) LPs that may only be found in vinyl. They choose the the best songs form each LP to icorporate in the CD. My only regret is that is doesn't provide all the songs. Perhaps someone will do a retrospective of his incredible voice that will include all his work."
Very nice early compilation

"This is the Raphael of Spain from 1966-1969 that started to invade first Latin America and eventually the States. These are the first real hits that jolted the AM radio then and which I recall when he transformed Pop music and even fashion. The other greatest hits are too eclectic and cover some earlier 1964-67 material. This one is a chunk or a polaroid of a specific time and it could have easily accomodated 20-25 songs. This "Ep" has at least half of the original soundtracks of his movies: I don't know whether (if nostalgia is the issue) would have been better just to do a limited reissue of his albums from 1966-69, which were GOOD. This is at least a nice attempt in that direction, and a reminder of my teen years."
Excellent selection of great songs, Raphael is marvelous!

"I hope there will be more collection of songs of this great artist. He is no doubt the Frank Sinatra of the spanish world but better."
