The title of Shakira's breakthrough 1996 album translates to "naked feet," which somehow captures the combination of playfulness and earnestness that marks the music. Recorded when she was 18, Pies Descalzos finds the Colombian singer-songwriter striving to find her own style. The disc moves through dance pop and dance-hall-lite before landing on a convincing-enough guitar-rock amalgam. It's a likable record, but Shakira seemed to acknowledge its weaknesses when she chose only one of its songs for inclusion on the later (and much superior) MTV Unplugged. --Rickey Wright

 Shakira's best. April 9, 2003
20 out of 20 found this review helpful
I love this album, I think I've heard it like 1,000 times or more. I bought it back in 1996 when Shakira wasn't know and I felt the album very acustic and simple but full of love, with lots of interest and feeling.
Now after 7 years I have Shakira's whole discography and any of her other albums haven't reach the quality of this one. Ok I know that now she sales millions of cd's and all that but this one is her best and anybody who knows her from back then will share the same opinion.
This album features her first hits like: "Estoy aqui", "Antologia", "Un poco de amor", "Quiero", "Pies descalzos", "Donde estas corazon" and "Se quiere se mata". Each one of the singles became a hit.
If someone doesn't know her from back then won't feel the change on her as a person. She used to be a lovely person but know she's serious and her feet are not any longer on the ground.
I highly recommend this album it's beautiful. It's her best without doubt.
EL MEJOR DISCO DE SHAKIRA January 24, 2001
14 out of 18 found this review helpful
ME GUSTA MUCHO SHAKIRA, HE IDO A DOS DE SUS CONCIERTOS Y TAMBIEN HE ESTADO EN NUEVA YORK EN EL UNPLUGGED, DE SUS TRES PRESENTACIONES, LA QUE MAS ME GUSTO FUE LA PRIMERA. DE SUS ALBUMS, ESTE ES EL MEJOR, EL SEGUNDO NO ES MALO PERO LO SIENTO MAS FORZADO, MAS HACIA EL EXITO, MAS COMERCIAL Y EL UNPLUGGED, ME PARECE UN DESPERDICIO, AHI DEFINITIVAMENTE SIENTES MEJORA EN SU VOZ, PERO LA PRODUCCION ME PARECE MALISIMA, NO SE COMO EMILIO ESTEFAN HA PODIDO PRODUCIR ESE DISCO QUE ES LA COPIA DE "DONDE ESTAN LOS LADRONES" Y SOLO SHAKIRA HA PODIDO CANTAR UNA CANCION DE "PIES DESCALZOS"....BUENO CAMBIAN UN POCO, ESTE DISCO ES MUY BUENO, LO HE ESCUCHADO NO SE CUANTAS VECES Y NO ME CANSA, CADA VEZ ME GUSTA MAS. SI ALGUIEN QUIERE SU PRIMER CD DE SAHKIRA SE TIENE QUE COMPRAR ESTA SIN DUDA, ES SUPER NATURAL Y SIENTES A SHAKIRA DESDE LA RAIZ.
Es un disco increible; imperdible. October 27, 1998

Shakira es definitivamente una de las mejores, y me animo a decir que la mejor artista femenina en su genero. Su muúsica es atrapante e intensa, y sus letras son increiblemente profundas. Tiene canciones rockeras y tambien baladas, que estan muy bien elaboradas. Esta artista, a pesar de su juventud, ha demostrado un gran profesionalismo con este disco, y tambien se ve que es una persona que sabe expresar muy bien sus sentimientos. Este es un disco que contiene canciones como "estoy aqui", "un poco de amor", "pies descalzos, suenos blancos", "se quiere, se mata", que no pueden dejar de escucharse. Si eres un fan de la música rock-pop, este es un album que no puedes dejar pasar. Definitivamente se va a convertir en uno de los clasicos de la música en espanol de los noventas.
 This girl is just so coooool... December 25, 1999

I've heard Shakira described as a "Latin Alannis Morrisette", which doesn't do her justice. Yes, she can rock just as hard, but unlike Morrisette she can *sing*, too. She's young, she's beautiful, she's enormously talented--I can hardly wait to see what she'll do next.The only reason I give "Pies Descalzos" four stars instead of five is because her most recent album, "Donde Estan Los Ladrones?" is just so damn good. I've thoroughly enjoyed "Pies Descalzos"--don't get me wrong--but "Donde Estan Los Ladrones?" is simply a more mature, stronger work overall. I still heartily recommend this CD--it is a very strong work, particularly for one so young, and it is interesting to see how much Shakira grew as an artist in the brief time between this album and "Donde Estan Los Ladrones?"
Great CD! April 5, 2005
