"This album is critically the best album he has done since his classic, "Medicina de Amor". It starts off with a bomb with the hit, " Morena yo soy tu marido". Also, "Me siento triste hoy","Y Llorare", and others including the title track provide the sound that this artist is well-known for. The merengues are on-point as he delivers two bachatarengues with excellent form. This CD no doubt will shut down critics who thought Raulin lost his skills. Excellent!"
Uno de los mejores!

"Tiene una copilacion de merengue, bachata y balada; pero todas con mucha calidad, en especial su letra"
El mismo Raulin de siempre

"This compilation by Raulin Rodriguez is one of his most complete productions ever. The album reaffirms his excellence in comparison to other top bachata artists and I would even venture say that he has out done himself this time. The lyrics of every song are sentimental and heart felt and what's most impressive about Raulin is that he writes his own songs. Therefore, if his exceptional talent has not yet been recognized by the critics and fans I hope this album erases any lingering doubts. This album contains 10 fabulous songs, seven of which are bachatas, two are merenbachatas and # 10 is a "potpourri of baladas", a first time launch of this genre for Raulin. All the bachatas are excellent but I would definitely say that the platinum hits are: "Morena yo soy tu marido", "Me siento triste hoy" and the album title song "Corazon Corazon". I was also particularly impressed with the merenbachatas which have a smooth rhythm and the mix of ballads at the end just round off an already superior cd. I can not emphasize enough that this cd is a class A act and most of all its author is one of the best bachateros of today who has a wonderful career still yet to unfold. I highly recommend this purchase and also the purchase of his previous production "Soledad" which is equally as strong. His most recent production "Arrancame la vida" will also leave you speechless."
One of his best

"I first heard Raulin while traveling in the Dom Rep several years ago when this album first came out. Morena Yo Soy tu Marido was playing on all of the radio stations and I got the album through a local street vendor. I still listen to this album at least once a week after all these years, and since then have gotten most of his other albums. The title track is especially moving to me and there is a good balance of upbeat songs along with the "Canciones de Amargue." Raulin calls himself "El Cacique", which means the native prince and his lyrics are easily the most romantic(and often bitter) of the Bachataderos. If you like this album, I also STRONGLY recommend his first live album which has several tracks from this album(it's often out of print, but look for it). The only track which I'm not that thrilled about on this album is the ballad medly at the end of the album. Raulin is an amazing guitar player and the music and lyrics complement each other wonderfully."
