Pimsleur is the best no question.
I've braved my way through every level the library owns (5?) (which amounts to an enormous number of hours), and still I got something out of going back to this Level 1 and talking my way from Columbus to Bucyrus and back about whether I would or would not like something to eat or drink. Where am I from? I am from North America. Do I have much time? No, I do not have mucho tiempo. I am a North American!

This is the best way to learn a language. It moves up a several steps an back a few with each CD. You have ample time to reply, learn the grammar, the pronunciation - and no pressure to move too quickly.
