About This Item
While Tex-Mex music is commonly thought of as the folk music that's popular along the Texas-Mexico border, ironically, it knows no borders when it comes to musical influences. Several selections on this album reach back to Germany and Poland for their roots, while a rhythm like cumbia goes back to Africa by way of Colombia. Still another tune, like the huapango, will have it's background firmly planted in Mexico. Album Tracks 1. Mi Cafetal (Cumbia) - Traditional 2. Volver, Volver (Bolero) - Fernando Maldonado 3.
