Background and content

In 2001, Luis Miguel released Mis Romances, the fourth album in the Romance series in which Miguel covers Latin American boleros.[2] The record was met with unfavorable reviews by music critics and was a commercial flop.[3] On 20 September 2002, Miguel announced that he would release a compilation album featuring previously-recorded boleros from the Romance series.[4] The record also features a new track, "Hasta Que Vuelvas", originally composed by Mario Arturo Ramos; it was arranged by Bebu Silvetti and Juan Carlos Calderón.[5] Miguel dedicated the song to his mother Marcela Basteri who disappeared in 1986 and mentioned that it was originally considered for inclusion on Mis Romances.[6] "Hasta Que Vuelvas" was released as a single on 3 October and peaked at number 16 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart in the United States.[6][7] Mis Boleros Favoritos was released on 8 October 2002 and a special edition of the disc includes a DVD which contains seven music videos from the Romance series.[8]
