"Vikki Carr sings from the heart and this collection of ranchera songs exemplifies her vocal range and her love of ranchera music. Her heritage is evident here. Ni Princesa Ni Esclava (Simplemente Mujer), is a gem--Women wish to be loved and respected, not put up on a pedestal, nor treated like dirt. Her duo with Vicente Fernandez on Dos Corazones is a romantic love song, slowing down the typical ranchera beat. I love this album of songs and these songs show just how versitile Vikki Carr is."

"When Vikki sings in spanish her whole heart and soul is in each song,but the music must have a spanish flavor,not an american song sung in spanish."

"Despite the title, these aren't really Vikki Carr's original hits; instead, it's a collection of 16 tracks recorded with mariachi accompaniement. Despite the misleading title, it's fantastic stuff."
