Fire And Tenderness Indeed!!!
This is easily one of the most elongated CD releases ever!! For years,Mexican label Musart Records kept these Lucero songs hidden, in fact many people weren't even aware they existed. But now, they have been released from the vault for our own amusement.

Lucero (or Lucerito as she was originally called) started her singing career in 1982, on the heels of her mega-succesful soap opera "Chispita" (whose theme song was curiously not sung by Lucerito, but rather Timbiriche).She was managed by SERGIO ANDRADE , the infamous man who eventually managed Gloria Trevi, and who both now rest in jail Her first 2 albums "Él" (1982) and "Con Tan Pocos Años" (1983) were more novelty material than sellers, and were deemed nothing more than cute material from Mexico's TV girlie sweetheart.

It wasn't until 2 years later, time in which she did more TV and film work (including "Fiebre De Amor" with another child star who would go on to adult glory, Luis Miguel), that Lucerito finally released material that truly was aimed at the music market. "Magia" (1985) was her best selling album on Musart. On this record, Sergio Andrade was contriving to make a pop record rather than a children's one. The inclusion of dance beats and more "grown up" themes like "Tu Amor Por Un Dia" or "Dame Dame" were made to break Lucerito out of this child image and grow into a young teen queen. And it worked!

All this worked well, but it wasn't until the single "Fuego Y Ternura" was released that Lucerito FINALLY gave people a run for their money. The song proved to be a big pop hit in Mexico, and more importantly becoming a hit all over Latin America and making her prescence known. It was written by the equally amazing underrated and highly ignored Mexican singer/songwriter PRISMA. The beat is reminiscent of "We Belong" by Pat Benatar. The similarities are uncanny, but Lucero's vocals stream along with the subtle music track. And like "We Belong", the song is quiet, but kicks in with a full band in the chorus. This is one of Lucero's finest moments, and I am glad that it is finally available again and came out of the darkness.

Lucerito finally released her last album on Musart "Un Pedacito De Mi"(1986), but it failed due to the fact that Sergio Andrade was fired as her manager and Lucerito went on and signed with another label, where she would truly be established as a house known name in the music scene.

This CD is a great trip thru Lucero's beginnings and also a key reminder about just how much of a great singer this girl is. Even at a tender age of 12, did she sound beautiful on the lovely balllad "Con Tan Pocos Años". Perfect pitch and inflection, here we can see that Lucero was honestly born to sing.

This CD is also a steal, being priced so cheaply and carrying quality music. Get it while it's out, and perhaps we can hope for Musart to release more of her material.

P.S. Amazon did not carry a track list, so I will take the liberty to do so:

01. Fuego Y Ternura
02. Magia
03. Tu Amor Por Un Dia
04. Dame Dame
05. Con Tan Pocos Años
06. Siempre Te Seguire
07. El
08. Bailando Con Tu Recuerdo
09. Te Prometo
10. America, Esta Es Tu Cancion
11. Como Musica De Rock and Roll
12. El Amor Toco A Mi Puerta

Lucero ROCKS
This is an excellent CD of Lucero, it features her first hits from the 80's at the beginning of her career. I hadn't heard some of these songs for over 20 years, so I felt really happy when I saw this CD. and I just bought it. This is a must for any Lucero fan or those who like 80's Spanish pop.

Listen to Lucerito!
Hey everyone this is some excellent 80s Spanish pop-rock that you are going to love. It is very happy and upbeat and will just get you in a happy mood as soon as you turn it on. It is kinda kidsy at parts, Lucerito, was young when she started out so this was no doubt aimed at a younger audience. Track 3 is extra-specially good. Amazon is the only place I have ever seen this Cd so if you are thinking of getting it don't hesitate- throw it into your cart. Sadly Amazon doesn't have sound excerpts from this, hopefully they put some up because you gotta hear it.
