Ven Conmigo is the second album release by Tejano singer Selena Y Los Dinos under EMI Latin. The album includes a musical variety of rancheras, cumbias, ballads, and pop. A.B. Quintanilla as the producer, enlisted the participation of David Lee Garza, an outstanding accordion player for the title track "Ven Conmigo". The song "Baila Esta Cumbia" was an instant success in the U.S. while crossing over later on to Mexico. Ven Conmigo was their first album to become Gold. The remastered version was released in 2002.
