In 1990, Raúl Velasco made a special TV show to celebrate José's 25th career anniversary. The show, broadcast by Televisa, lasted over five hours and featured special guests such as Armando Manzanero, Libertad Lamarque, Vicente Fernández and Marco Antonio Muñiz. Later that year, he released "En las Buenas... y en las Malas" with the lead single "Amnesia" reaching number-one on the Hot Latin Songs chart. Two years later, he released "40 y 20" in which the title track speaks about men who fall in love with women that are much younger than them and the reaction of the society to those situations.
