Editorial Review: Amazon.com essential recording: Cuban American singer Gloria Estefan was a mainstream pop balladeer and dance music queen who happened to be Latina before taking a surprising turn in Mi Tierra and reclaiming her roots. Singing in Spanish, impeccably produced and backed by a superb ensemble that includes 79-year-old maestro Israel Lopez "Cachao" on bass (he is only the creator of mambo itself), arranger Juanito Marquez, and singer and percussionst Luis Enrique, Estefan delivers worthy reinterpretations and updates of traditional Afro-Cuban styles. It might be too smooth for traditionalists--who may also object to Estefan's delivery, not that of classic sonera--but as an introduction to the music, it is engaging and the playing of the ensemble is true and impeccable. --Fernando Gonzalez Customer Reviews

Rating: - magical and transformative music......From the opening bars of the beautiful "Con Los Años Que Me Quedan" (translation: "With the Years I have Left"), the luscious and seamless sounds of Gloria Estefan's heavenly music on MI TIERRA (MY HOMELAND) fill my heart with tenderness and longing. This wonderful ballad provides just a little taste of the range and brilliance of the music of Cuba, the country of Gloria Estefan's soul and rich heritage. How lucky are we that Estefan chose to share the music of her heart with us. We hear a little bit of everything, from son montuno (a variation on the son, a typical Afro-Cuban rhythm) on "Si Senor! Es Mi Son!" to montuno on "Montuno" (another rhythmic traditional type of music whose influence is often heard in salsa, and transcends ...
