15 Exitos Inmortales de Jorge Negrete

Amazon.com
He was Mexico's first and perhaps biggest charro cantor (singing cowboy), and he played his role to the hilt. In dozens of movies, Jorge Negrete played the big romantic hero, and with his operatic vocal training, he interpreted the Mexican folk songs with an inspired reading and made them unforgettable hits. Among them, and included here, are "Juan Charrasqueado," "El Hijo del Pueblo," and "Ay Jalisco No Te Rajes," the title track from the popular movie of the same name, the film that first put Negrete on the map. Other tunes on this CD became Negrete signature songs--"Yo Soy Mexicano," on pride and patriotism; "Amor con Amor Se Paga," on the give-and-take in romance; and "Mexico Lindo," whose sad lyrics of dying on foreign soil became prophetic for Negrete when he died in a Los Angeles hospital in December 1953. --Ramiro Burr

Jorge Negrete the greatest.......2006-09-09

Jorge Negrete has a wonderful voice with a great expression of emotion making him the best Mexican singers of rancheras, corridos, and ballads.

This compilation will sure give you a taste of that wonderful voice accompanied by great Mariachi bands. If you are familiar with Jorge Negrete, this compilation would remind you of his songs and movies.

Hot stuff.......2001-07-31

I'm going to dress up like Jorge for Holloween.

An incredible time capsule of Jorge Negrete at his best........1999-08-31

There will never be another authentic Mexican singer to equal his charisma and ability to sing corridos, rancheras and ballads. He could sing everything, as I can best remember. I remember his movies and his singing from the 40's and 50's. Whenever I listen to his Exitos Inmortales, I can go back in time to re-live and experience the Golden Age of the Mexican Charro.

wonderful, romantic.......1999-03-23

Jorge Negrete was the most sexiest man around back in the early fifties, and soromantic too. He knew exactly how to treat a woman, he was such a gentleman and handsome too, I was only a child then, but I remember all the women going crazy over him. I used to wonder why, but after I see the men of today I feel sad. It was very nice to look up to your man. I understand that some women had something to do with it. But do the rest of us have to pay for it.?
