Ilegales burst onto the Latin music scene in the mid-'90s with its merengue-meets-house hit "La Morena." The group remained popular into the next decade, scoring another big hit in 2001 with "Tu Recuerdo," and
Hits tracks its career through this period. It's far from a definitive collection, with
Ilegales other notable hits ("El Taqui Taqui" and "La Ladrona") showing up here as live cuts only. Live or not, all the tracks on
Hits work very well as an introduction to the world of
Ilegales. ~ Wade Kergan
