Dominican singer, composer, and bandleader Juan Luis Guerra is one of the few true innovators in contemporary Latin music. He created a revolution when he reinvented traditional merengue with smart, poetic lyrics, jazz harmonies, and higher production values. In Bachata Rosa he similarly updated the lowly bachata, the rural, Dominican down-home version of the romantic ballad. Songs such as "Estrellitas y Duendes (Little Stars and Goblins)," "Como Abeja al Panal (Like a Bee to the Beehive)," "Burbujas de Amor (Love Bubbles)," and the title track revisit the old love themes with rare grace and subtle poetic flair. Meanwhile "Rosalia," "Cartas de Amor," and "A Pedir Su Mano" (in which Guerra hints at the connections between Dominican and African music which he pursued in subsequent albums) provide superb dance floor tracks. The result was a commercial and artistic success and with good reason. --Fernando Gonzalez

Es múscia fresca y divertida.BACHATA Y ROMANCEReview Date: 2008-05-17 Rating: 10 out of 10Este fue, sin lugar a dudas, el album que llevaria a Juan Luis guerra y 4.40 a la fama mundial y a la cuspide de su carrera musical como grupo; se consolida la imagen de juan Luis como cantautor, se enriquecen los temas con poesia (se utilizan frases de Pablo Neruda), y la instrumentalizacion es mas rica en elegancia y romaticismo; baladas preciosas como "Burbujas De Amor", "Estrellitas y Duendes", "Como Abeja Al Panal" y "Bachata Rosa", destacando los ritmos sabrosos como "La Bilirrubina", "A Pedir Su Mano" y "Rosalia"; a mencionar tambien la maravillosa voz de Adalguisa Pantaleon en la balada "Reforestame" (que bello timbre vocal); un album INOLVIDABLE.Su primer disco, para mí.Review Date: 2008-04-30 Rating: 10 out of 10Aquí se aprecia la melodía y la poesía de Juan Luis. Este fue el primer disco que escuché de él. En el hay canciones que llegan a lo profundo del ser. Deben ser pocas las canciones más bellas para estar enamorado que "Bachata Rosa" o "Estrellitas y Duendes". Grande Juan Luis!!!!
