Un Tributo Diferente por Martha FigueroaBy Aida CortesThis tribute to Luis Miguell; famous Mexican singer recognized by the Billboard as the most important singer in the last 25 years is well deserved. It is well written; light to read; interesting anecdotes; funny and creative. Great work by writer Marthita Figueroa. Well deserved Luis Miguel; who has given us 30 years of musicasl career and he is only 42. I recommend it to those who can understand Spanish. Love the fact that his personal life is respected.Este Tribuo a Luis Miguel; famoso cantate de Mexico y reconocido por el Billboard como el cantante mas importante de los ultimos 25 antilde;os es un tribute merecido. Nos ha entregado su carrera musical por 30 antilde;os con solo 42 de vida. La periodista Marthta Figueroa ha hecho un gran trabajo. Es ameno; simpaticos; llenod de aventuras y sobre todo respetando la vida personal del canntate. Muy bien escrito. Lo recomiendo; se lee pronto.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. The book did have photos...By jzI rated it 1 star only because this book did have photos. The Author talks about herself 95% of the whole book and only 2% about Luis Miguel and the rest about unrelated nonsense. I have read books about Luis Miguel that contained 100% information about him. One of the book about LM which I read around 1995 but cannot remember the name of the author. Dont waste your time reading this book.4 of 4 people found the following review helpful.
