REVIEW

“...brings a taste of the tremendous wealth of Conjunto music that has been released by Arhoolie. The modern ‘stars’ are well represented..., but so are many artists you’d only find on juke boxes south of the border. An excellent example of depth, complexity and rewards of a traditional music that rarely gets even a passing glance from the folk and traditional music scene in the U.S. I am eternally grateful to Arhoolie for making this music available. ”
