A bird in heaven! October 24, 2009
Hiram Gomez Pardo (Valencia, Venezuela)
The recent departure of Mercedes Sosa shocked the emotion of several generations. Despite of the fact I never shared her political vision, I have to recognize her absolute devotion for her art. She was the most extraordinary female troubadour of Latin America.
Her songs based on texts of Violeta Parra (Thanks to life or Gracias a la vida), her unequaled version of (Alphonsina and the sea Alfonsina y el mar) or I like the students Me gustan los estudiantes) will endure in our minds as part of a wounded generation tired of waiting (like the sixties meant).
In certain way she represented in Latin America what Joan Baez in North America, the irreverent singer of overlooked and unsaid facts.
In memoriam!
Just wonderful September 19, 2009
Maria V. Gonzales-
Mercedes Sosa is just one of the greatests "cantoras" of America. Simply, this material is wonderful.
Mercedes Sosa - 30 Years April 26, 2009
Timothy A. Moreland (Austin, TX USA)
Excellent collection of her greatest hits (exitos grandes.) With this CD there is really no reason to have any other of her CD. Sorry Madame Sosa!
Mercedes Sosa: 30 years singing all over the world! October 30, 2007
Maximiliano F Yofre (Buenos Aires, Argentina)
Mercedes Sosa (1935) is one of the greatest Argentinean folk singer!
She jumps to public attention when she was fifteen years old winning a singer's radio contest in Tucuman, her natal Province. From that point on she continues growing up as a notorious figure in the folk singers medium.
Due to difficult political situation at Argentina in 1979 she was forced into exile by military Junta, revisited Argentina briefly in 1982, giving a live recital and returned definitely in 1984 with the arrival of democracy.
The songs of this CD reflect Mercedes' musical life, not only Argentinean music but a wide and rich Latin American repertoire.
"La Maza" and "Unicornio" from Cuban Silvio Rodriguez's repertoire. In the first one, the author of the song interrogates the audience, in poetical language, about what will be songs & music without substance. The second one is a melancholic song from one who has los his Blue Unicorn and searches it desperately. Both songs are sung with deep compromise by Mercedes.
"Maria, Maria" authored by Brazilians Milton Nascimento & Fernando Brant, with unmistakable afro rhythm is interpreted brilliantly by Sosa.
Chilean composer Violeta Parra contributes with a top notch composition: "Gracias a la Vida" with Mercedes giving way to all her sentiment.
"La Arenosa" whose text is authored by Manuel J. Castilla and music composed by Cuchi Leguizamon, two well known folklorists and traditional motive "Luna Tucumana" are compositions more in line with Mercedes' usual compilations.
"Alfonsina y el Mar" whose text is authored by Felix Luna and music composed by Ariel Ramirez, tells the tragic end of poet Alfonsina Storni. Mercedes give a pungent interpretation.
These are only some of the themes that compose this beautiful album. You shouldn't miss it by all means!

Citywoman (Australia)
If you haven't heard Mercedes Sosa's song, there are some tracks on this compile that will convert you to fandom. This Argentinian woman, whose mixed descenet seems to have supplied her with all the good singing genes, was born in 1935. She has the most marvellous voice, fresh as the dawn and as crystal clear. Particularly moving is 'Gracias a la Vida' (more famously sung by Joan Baez, but Sosa's version is divine). I love this CD and it can lift me out of the doldrums in a wink. If you buy this, maybe also get the 2001 CD of 'Missa Criolla' as the Sosa version is fabulous. Her voice is mellow, but timeless, young-sounding and pure without affectation.
