This release marked an important transition in the career of Yolandita Monge. So far all her records had maintained a similar musical concept and arrangements. However, with this production the singer launched a new, fresh and modern international pop sound that served as the preamble to the "boom" that broke out with her next album, Luz de Luna. This production also marked her foray into dance pop and the first of several radical image make-overs that would place her at the forefront of fashion trends in Puerto Rico.

The album was re-issued on CD format in 1993 and is currently out of print in all media formats. Several hits songs appear in various compilations of the singer available as digital downloads at iTunes and Amazon.
