Wonderful Tex-Mex conjunto music w/polkas, cumbias, ranchera, and boleros. Infectious music w/great guitars, bass, accordion, perc & vocals. Typically wonderful Smithsonian notes as well. Great stuff, one star, at least, each track. In Spanish & English. 1. Fun and bouncy polka. Instant fun. 2. Fiesty good cumbia w/a wickedly fun wiggle. 3. Lively midtempo folk dance w/extra good accordion. 4. Warm polka bounce w/great vocals. So good. 5. Beautiful, romantic ranchera w/lush & warm vocals. 6. Wonderful, playful instrumental. Upbeat & cheerful. 7. Bright polka w/a light and sunny touch. 8. Slow and tres romantic w/sexy, sultry male vocals. Sigh… 9. Midtempo folk dance, like an oom-pah track w/o the oom-pah 10. Upbeat and lighthearted ode to a long-distance trucker. 11. A hint of Cuba by way of Mexico, midtempo rolance. 12. Sweet and lively polka w/good vocals & lots of emotion. 13. Tripping, upbeat folk dance w/a crazy good rhythm. 14. Romantic, lyrical, sweet & sad. Good vocals, atmospheric. 15. Upbeat accordion & fun vocals mark this lively polka. 16. Crazy good upbeat polka & non-stop liveliness & style. | ||
