Mexican-American Border Music, Vols. 6 & 7: Corridos & Tragedias, Vol. 1

by CORRIDOS Y TRAGEDIAS DE LA FRO

Overview

Of all the seminal Folklyric tejano releases, this is to my mind the best. It's certainly the most lavish, with its 170-page illustrated booklet. But the corridos played, and play, such an important historical role in Texas-Mexican society, and musically are of such stark splendor, that there is no way this would not be a crucial re-release on every conceivable ground. ~ John Storm Roberts, Original Music
