Thalía is the eponymous debut solo studio album by Mexican singer Thalía. It was produced by Alfredo Diaz Ordaz and released in Mexico on 9 October 1990, by Fonovisa Records.[1][2] The album consisted of songs inspired in the 1980s rock, disco, pop, and ballads style. The first two singles "Un Pacto Entre Los Dos" and "Saliva" were highly controversial due to their suggestive lyrics, but were nonetheless highly successful, and are now considered Thalía's classics along with "Amarillo Azul" and "Pienso En Ti".[3][4][5]

Background and production


In 1987, Thalía joined the musical group Timbiriche, replacing member Sasha Sokol, one of the most popular members of the group and of whom Thalía was a fan. With the group, Thalía released two albums: Timbiriche VII and the double album Timbiriche VIII & IX, bothe of them sold one million copies in Mexico.[8][9] Seeking greater freedom as an artist, in late 1989, Thalía announced her departure from Timbiriche to pursue a solo career.[10] In January 1990, the singer traveled to the United States to prepare musically.[10] At the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), she took English, dance, singing and acting classes.[10] The album was produced by Thalía's mentor Alfredo Díaz,[11] who was in charge of the music departament of Televisa.[12] The singer wanted to revive the Flower power movement and "to break from anything traditional".[12] In the middle of that same year, she returned to Mexico with a new image and released her first LP on 9 October.[13] "Un Pacto Entre los Dos" became its first promotional single for radio.


Composition


The album includes compositions by Thalía, Alfredo Díaz Ordaz, Áureo Baqueiro, among others; with pop rock styles on songs like "Un Pacto Entre los Dos", "Libertad de Expresión" and "Talismán", even ballads such as "Pienso En Ti" and "El poder de tu amor". It was published in the three popular formats at the time: LP, cassette and compact disc. The first edition of the album was sold out just two weeks after its launch in her native country. The album was the subject of much controversy, due to the provocative and original lyrics of some songs in addition to the sensual and avant-garde image that the singer showed at that time. "Saliva" was banned on several radio stations in Mexico and "Un Pacto Entre los Dos" was considered "sadomasochistic".[3][4][5]


Promotion


The first performance of the album's songs was held in October 1990 at a hotel in Mexico City. In 1991, Thalía attended the talk show La Movida, hosted by Verónica Castro, where she performed live numerous songs from the album.
