Ven Conmigo

Tejano superstar Selena begins to fully embrace her unlimited potential on this slick collection, which features a standard mix of rancheras and pop tracks. Every song, however, is a gem, thanks to a Selena's sultry delivery and brother A.B. Quintanilla III's solid production. The shuffling title track features Tejano legend David Lee Garza on accordion, but the album's highlight is Selena's breakout hit, "Baila Esta Cumbia," an infectious classic that would go on to become a sizzling staple of her live sets. The disc also hints at Selena's crossover appeal via the upbeat "Enamorada de Ti" and "No Quiero Saber," which would live on in remixed versions after her untimely death. --Joey Guerra
