José José (album)


José José is the eponymously titled debut studio album released by Mexican singer José José in 1969.
With this, his first LP album recorded at RCA Victor in Mexico City and produced under the supervision of composers Rubén Fuentes and Armando Manzanero, José José begins a long and successful career. Unfortunately, although this LP contained hits like "Pero te extraño", "Cuidado", "Una Mañana" and "Agua Con Sal", the label did not give enough promotion, considering that was not commercial but very refined. The musicalization of the album is a fusion of the romantic ballad with a touch of bossa nova and jazz, genres in which José began his career. Despite being very prestigious musical genres, they are not very popular. It can be seen in the instrumentation of songs "Sin Ella" and "Una Mañana".
