• "Released by Fonovisa Records on May 2, 1995." it needs to start with "It was..." or this sentence needs to be merged with another one as it's an incomplete sentence right now.

• Fair use rationale template for the image of the front cover could use some improvement, there are "n.a." in a few places which really ought to have reasons.

• "released three singles" looks like four singles to me.

• "Even without a formal review, the website Allmusic gave the album four stars out of five" it's AllMusic, and secondly what does "Even without a formal review" really mean? If it reviewed it, it reviewed it...

• "likable batch of moving anecdotal corridos, spirited rancheras, and a pair of ballads that would be superb singles: "Golpes en el Corazón" and "Nos Estorbó la Ropa".[1] Need to close the quote, and see how to put quotes within quotes, normally use apostrophes per MOS.

• "a "corrido" " why suddenly corrido in quotes?

• Is there an update on sales figures over the last 16 years?

I could not find any. Javier Espinoza (talk) 01:43, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

A few issues, mostly prose/grammar, so I'll put on hold for a week. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:54, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your review. Javier Espinoza (talk) 01:43, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

Jaespinoza No worries, thanks for addressing the concerns. One last thing, you have "Norteño (music)" as a genre in the infobox but this isn't mentioned anywhere else, I suggest it's either incorrect and should be removed or it should be expanded upon a little in the article. Once that's done, we're good to go. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:48, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
