Javier Solis - 15 Autenticos Exitos Rancheras @FLAC

A great voice, a bit of nostalgia, some of best penned rancheras, superb arrangements, and backed by some of best mariachis, complete with gritos and rechiflas of encouragement and a recipe for your own personal fiesta.....ay,ay,ay yaayyyy!!! Javier Solis who left this world much to early at age 34, left behind enough memorable recordings(300), many from the 30 films he sang in, that he easily fills out this collection of rancheras. These recordings come from various times beginning in 1957 but mostly from the early to mid 60's. Javier Solis was greatly influenced by Pedro Infante and it is evident on this recordings as he belts out his renditions of such famous rancheras as those written by el immortal Jose Alfredo Jimminez.

The consummate bolero, Javier Solis is without doubt on a level that many have since tried to attain, a lofty goal only those with true greatness ever achieve. Somewhere the great Mexican fiesta in the sky is happening and Jose Alfredo, Pedro Infante, Jorge Negrete and Javier Solis are all taking turn at lead vocals. The great ones never die, they just leave their memories here for the rest of us.

This is a superb collection from one of the masters of Mexican song, a collection of boleros and rancheras by the late, great, Javier Solis. If by chance you've never heard this Mexican icon do yourself a favor and join the fiesta.
