Review - AMG
Gloria Estefan: Don't Stop! gathers 12 of the pop diva's videos and live performances, including clips for "Oye," "Heaven's What I Feel," "Turn the Beat Around," and "Everlasting Love." Excerpts from her Gloria! promotional tour, and performances at the Virgin Megastore in Times Square, the World Music Video Awards, and the VH1 Divas concert round out this entertaining collection of Estefan's latter-day hits. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
Review
Gloria Estefan's second volume of Greatest Hits seems more progressive than her first, considering the techno-leaning sounds of her 1990s hits. which dominate this second volume of Greatest Hits as compared to the more straight-ahead pop from her 1980s hits. This collection assembles nearly all of her Hot 100 hits since her last Greatest Hits album (only "Don't Let This Moment End" is missing). Most of the songs are included in their original album versions, save for a couple which may be of interest to the collector. "If We Were Lovers," one of her loveliest and classiest ballads, was originally on the Mi Tierra album in its Spanish-language form, titled "Con los Anos Que Me Quedan." The English version of the song had never been available on any of her albums until now. Also making its first appearance on a Gloria Estefan album is her duet with *NSNYC, "Music of My Heart." "You'll Be Mine (Party Time)" and "I'm Not Giving You Up" are featured in remixed forms which had previously only been available as singles. The real treat, however, are the three new songs, which rank among the singer's best, especially "You Can't Walk Away from Love," a dramatic, sweeping, Middle Eastern-tinged ballad. Also included is an updated remix of her first U.S. hit, "Conga." All in all, this is a fine greatest-hits album, almost superior to her first, with classy ballads, great pop songs, and high-energy dance numbers.
