Colombian singer Carlos Vives continues his exploration of the sounds of his homeland on El Amor de Mi Tierra, a lush collection that also includes rumba, cumbia, and Caribbean rhythms anchored by an earthy, folksy flavor. Vives, a former television actor, polishes it with a glowing pop sheen, thanks to solid production from Latin-music mogul Emilio Estefan. The pair work wonderfully together on tracks such as "Tu Amor Eterno," "El Cante," "La Receta," and especially "Fruta Fresca," a desperately romantic moment that has become Vives's biggest radio hit. Vocally, Vives keeps his delivery suitably grounded, working within the infectious rhythms of the music instead of fighting against it or struggling to remain on top. It makes for a consistently engaging, refreshingly uncomplicated musical experience. --Joey Guerra

Mediocre.......2003-12-20
Wonderful Spiritual Music from Colombia.......2003-11-23
Great Album.......2003-10-20
Knowing Spanish will help you enjoy this more - but even without it, the rythm of the music feeds into you.
I own several of CVivas's CDs, but keep coming back to this one.
Buena Letra. . . Pero . . ........2002-12-25
Compre El Amor De Mi Tierra porque me gusto mucho Clasicos de La Provincia. Aparte, aca la cancion "Fruita Fresca," habia pegado muy fuerte y queria oir el resto del CD
Senti un poquito desilusionada con my compra. Abajo veras porque:
La Letra
La letra de la mayoria de las canciones es lindo, impactante, memorable.
Peero . . .
La Voz De Carlos Vives
Ok, se que todas sus fanaticas me van a matar, pero no creo que el canta especialmente bien. No se si el fuma, pero si SI, debe de dejarlo.
La Musica
Opino que los musicos son las verdaderas estrellas de Amor de Mi Tierra. Me encanta el acordeon y los arreglos son buenos.
La Mejor Cancion
No puedo explicar exactamente porque no me gustaban la mayoria de las canciones. Una que SI me encanto era 19 de Noviembre. Es excelente, bailable, buena letra. Tiene de todo.
En fin. Si eres super super fanatica de Carlos Vives, comprate este disco! Si no, pues, ahorrate los 15 dolares.
Aparte, quisiera ver mas musica de distintas artistas Colombianas--especialmente algunas caras negras. Shakira y Carlos son OK, pero son los unicos en Colombia que saben cantar?
Cuento Dulce that Cooks!!.......2002-08-02
A pretty face will catch one's eye, but this guy has got the audio thing going on too. He sings in that lovely Colombian accent that tends to drop final consonants, as if they were extraneous candy wrappers ("honey, just throw those dirty candy wrappers out of the bus window"). All of this over a lilting Afro-Caribe beat, you know, the one Paul Simon wrested for "Graceland" and "Rythym of the Saints". But this is home-cooked Vallenato, leg/hip candy at its finest.
High boiling point, hard-ball confectionry. Um, um, um.

Gorgeous!.......2003-10-08
I was living there in 1998, so I had the tremendous experience to feel the sensations of freedom that he brought to our country, so every cuban should read the lyrics and enjoy this beatiful music greatly performed.
