A collection of both bachatas and merengues\, Amor de una Noche was released on the independent label Chaira Records and distributed in the United States\, Puerto Rico\, and Spain.

He proceeded to release several albums on JM Records\, including Luisa Mar a (1999)\, Te Echo de Menos (2000)\, Quiero Amanecer Contigo (2001)\, and Amor de Locos (2003). These albums proved popular enough in Spain to warrant a television-advertised double-disc greatest-hits collection\, Grandes Exitos (2003).
