Editorial Review:
Being a pop icon is nothing new to the Grammy-winning, Puerto Rican singer/actor Ricky Martin. He was a child star with the '80s kid group Menudo. And he was a regular on the soap opera General Hospital. But he hit the big time in 1999 with his smash Anglo hit Livin’ la Vida Loca. On his new CD, Martin returns to his Hispanic roots with this zesty Spanish language release, which translates as Souls of Silence. Backed by poetic and pulsating string/synth/horn production from Tommy Torres, George Noriega, Emilo Estefan and Stefano, this effort comes with all of Martin's grand moods and grooves. The fiery, flamenco-flavored "Jaleo" is rendered in Latin pop and hip-hop, Spanglish versions. Both takes, along with the equally danceable numbers like "Besos de Fuego," are designed to move your bon bon. But Martin's bolero ballads "Tal Vez," the title track, penned by the other Latin star Alejandro Sanz, and Ricardo Arjona's "Assignatura Pendiente" show that Martin can sing for the heart and the hips. With this effort, Ricky Martin moves into Celine Dion territory and may be able to keep his loyal Latino dance/ pop fans while making new ones in the adult contemporary market. --Eugene Holley, Jr.
Almas del Silencio Reviews:
Ricky Martin is wonderful! 
2009-12-16 - Ricky Martin is definitey my favorite singer of all times. I saw him first time when I was 14-years-old at Coliseo Divos in Peru. Then, again at the Pantages Theater in Hollywood.
This CD Almas del Silencio or Silence Souls is easy to listen.
Great songs! His voice stands out in "SI TU TE VAS" and "TAL VEZ". JALEO makes me dance like Ricky.
Anyways, I highly recommend this CD to all people of all ages.

2008-05-25 - This product was in perfect condition. The CD was clean with no scratches, and the artwork was clean too.
Te Amo
2006-04-15 - I didn't think I would like it as much as Vuelve but I do. I love Jaleo, Razas, Jamas and Si Ya No Estas is my absolute favorite. Oh Ricky Te Amo!
I had almost lost hope till I heard this CD!
2005-10-18 - I've been a Ricky Martin fan for over a decade now but after "Living La Vida Loca" (and the few years after)I started to question my sanity for still hoping better times would come. So for the past few years I've just bearly kept tabs on what his new projects were, etc. wondering whatever happened to the Ricky I "knew" before he decided to crossover into the English Market. And then I heard about "Almas del Silencio". It took me many months before I risked buying the CD. And boy! Did I wish I had bought it earlier! It was amazing hearing him sing in his native language again! Like someone mentioned before, he does a MUCH better job in conveying emotions in Spanish. He really gets back to his roots in "Almas del Silencio". Even though I realize this CD is more an apologetic than anything else (If you were in Puerto Rico when his English CD came out you'll understand what I'm talking about!) I couldn't help but love it. You won't be disappointed.
