A Pesar de Todo (All the Same) is the fourth album recorded by Puerto Rican salsa singer Víctor Manuelle, released on June 3, 1997. Under the record label of Sony Discos, Sony Tropical, and distributed by Sony Music Entertainment, this album signifies the consecration of Víctor Manuelle.[citation needed] It contains songs such as "Dile A Ella", "Así Es La Mujer", composed and written by Omar Alfano, "El Aguila," and the most successful single from the album, "He Tratado", composed by Manuelle himself. The latter song is considered, by salsa music experts, a flagship song of Salsa romantica.[citation needed]
Background
[edit | edit source]After finishing his first successful album, Victor Manuelle, which was his first album to enter the Billboard Lists, the Puerto Rican singer recorded this album with the hopes that it would be more successful than the previous one, which he achieved, leaving hits such as "He Tratado", "Dile A Ella", and "Asi Es La Mujer".
