Background, production and promotion
The year of 1988 was a successful one for the group Timbiriche, the album Timbiriche VIII & IX, yielded several successful singles and the album achieved platinum certification, selling over a million copies in Mexico. However, two of the most popular members broke up with the group, seeking to launch themselves as solo artists, namely: Eduardo Capetillo and ThalÃa. The producers did not give up on the band, and sought two new members to record and release the tenth album, newcomers Bibi Gaytán, Cláudio Bermúdez and Patty Tanús were hired to join Diego Schoening, Erik RubÃn, Paulina Rubio and Edith Marquez. There was a lot of speculation as to Patty's separation from the group, but rumor has it that she lied about being married when she entered the group, plus the supposed inclination on behalf of Paulina Rubio that Patty was to mature for the group.To promote an album, a promotional tour was made, which featured shows in Mexico, the United States, Central America and South America.
