Recorded in the 1950s featuring accordion, guitars, drums, bass and tight 3-part vocal harmonies (a few instrumentals). The accordion is extra good. Lots of Tejano polkas and rancheras, classic stuff that’s all worth a play. Read the informative notes for more info.
1. A relaxed, midtempo sway w/good accordion.
*2. Bright & fun upbeat bolero w/kitchy-good maracas.
3. Everybody polka! A total toe-tapper. Bright & catchy.
*4. Mid/downtempo w/good vocals & warm arrangement.
*5. Another toe-tapper, this time w/really good vocals.

7. Bouncy accordion/strings with solid vocals.
*8. Warm and swaying folk dance, nicely done.
