(More customer reviews)Filmed in 1988 at the Miami Arena, with a sold-out, enthusiastic audience, Gloria Estefan is a marvel in this well-filmed concert from the early days of her incredibly successful career. The musicianship of the Miami Sound Machine is also terrific, and they put on a show that is full of energy and pizzazz. Gloria looks stupendous, with flawless skin and a glorious mane of hair, with 2 skin-tight costume changes, and an electric personality. My favorite piece is the stupendous "Conga," and Gloria dedicates "Words Get in the Way" to "The Ballad King," Julio Iglesias, who is in the audience, and takes a bow. There are 2 medleys sung in Spanish, as well as part of "Anything for You," and the rest is sung in English. The guys in the Miami Sound Machine deserve a lot of credit, and they are: Bass: Jorge Casas, keyboards: Clay Ostwald and Jim Trompeter, percussion: Rafael Padilla, trombone: Teddy Mulet, trumpet: Randy Barlow, guitar: John De Farria, sax: Mike Scaglione, and drums: Kiki Garcia. The audio and visual quality is very good, and total running time is 80 minutes.
